EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Colonel Frederick Gustavus Burnaby, a renowned English traveller and British Army officer, in 1870. The artist behind this remarkable piece is James Tissot, and the painting is currently housed at the National Portrait Gallery in London. In this portrait, Burnaby exudes an air of authority and confidence as he sits in a red-striped chair indoors. His military attire reflects his position as an army officer during a time of war in Britain's history. With a cigarette delicately held between his fingers and a distinguished moustache adorning his face, Burnaby embodies the spirit of adventure and masculinity. The rich colors captured by Tissot's oil on canvas technique bring out the vibrancy of Burnaby's dress while also adding depth to his character. This image offers us a glimpse into the life of an extraordinary man who fearlessly explored unknown territories. Published in The Studio Volume 108 by Studio Publications in 1934, this photograph print serves as both historical documentation and artistic expression. It transports us back to the 19th century when travel was still considered an adventurous endeavor that only few dared to undertake. As we admire this exquisite portrait, we can't help but be captivated by Frederick Gustavus Burnaby's enigmatic presence - forever immortalized through James Tissot's masterful brushstrokes.
