Provenance
Private European Estate
This striking portrait dates to around 1620, as you can see from the images of the sash the detail is very high. The sash is decorated with gold thread and would have cost a small fortune at the time. Sashes were originally developed for a military function (making officers more visible for their men during combat), but soon became a primarily male fashion accessory.
The sash that the sitter wears around his chest, the gorget around his neck and the ornate sword by his side, probably refer to his appointment as a Captain or Officer of the English Army.
The wealth of the sitter is vibrantly captured through the sitter’s resplendent costume. He wears a fine ruff, and his doublet is abundantly embroidered with plants and birds in expensive gold thread.

- Portrait of a Girl, 18th Century Oil Old MasterBy George KnaptonLocated in London, GBGeorge Knapton 1698-1778 Portrait of a Girl Oil on canvas Image size: 20 x 18 inches Original giltwood frame This beautiful half length portrait of a young woman, turned to left, gazing at the spectator, wearing a pink, white lace-embroidered, dress, in her hair a pink bonnet trimmed with lace to match her dress.

The Artist Knapton was born in Lymington, one of four sons of James Knapton. He was apprenticed to Jonathan Richardson from 1715 to 1722, and in 1720 was a founding subscriber to the academy of St. Martin's Lane established by Louis Chéron...Category
