EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait by Thomas Hudson, we are transported back to the 18th century and introduced to the Thistlethwayte family. The painting, executed on canvas with oil paint, showcases Hudson's mastery in capturing not only the physical likeness of his subjects but also their individual personalities. The central figures of the composition are a husband and wife, exuding an air of elegance and refinement. Their daughters flank them on either side, radiating youthful innocence and charm. The family is seated in ornate chairs adorned with intricate carvings, symbolizing their status and wealth. Every detail has been meticulously rendered by Hudson's brush: from the delicate costumes worn by each family member to the vibrant flowers and plants that surround them. A basket overflowing with thistles serves as a subtle nod to their surname - Thistlethwayte. Through this portrait, we catch a glimpse into the lives of this British family during a time when portraiture was not only about capturing one's appearance but also conveying social standing and familial ties. It is evident that Hudson skillfully captured both aspects in his portrayal of the Thistlethwaytes. This print from Liszt Collection allows us to appreciate not only its artistic merit but also offers us a window into history - reminding us of our shared human experiences across centuries.
