EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the youthful charm of Rowland Bloxam, nephew to the renowned Sir Thomas Lawrence, as depicted in an engraving by Frederick Christian Lewis after an original sketch by Sir Thomas Lawrence himself. The image is taken from P.G. Patmore's "Cabinet of Gems," published by Ackermann in London in 1837. The young boy, dressed in a fine, blue ribbon-tied dress, gazes directly at the viewer with an innocent and slightly mischievous expression. His chubby cheeks and rosy complexion suggest the warmth and vitality of childhood. The delicate hand-tinting adds depth and richness to the image, bringing out the intricacies of the boy's attire and the subtle details of Sir Thomas Lawrence's skillful sketch. Sir Thomas Lawrence, a prominent British portrait painter of the Regency and Victorian eras, was known for his mastery of capturing the likenesses and personalities of his subjects. In this portrait of his nephew, Rowland, he showcases his ability to convey the unique character and spirit of a child. The portrait is a testament to the artist's talent and the enduring appeal of childhood innocence. This engraving, with its intricate details and beautiful hand-tinting, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives and fashions of the Victorian and Regency eras. The image is a precious addition to any collection of historical portraits or studies of childhood in art.
