English School early 19th century, Portrait of two children, drawing

circa 1800

About the Item

English School early 19th century, Portrait of two children, Pencil and light heightenings of white and red gouache 29.5 x 23 cm In quite good condition : the pape is yellowed by time and there foxings and stains visible (please refer to the photographs) In a vintage frame (some minor damages) : 48.5 x 38 cm This charming drawing of a child is typical of English portraiture as it reached its apogee shortly before with Reynolds and Gainsborough. The codes required, for example, that the woman be seated and the man standing, and often in a landscape, preferably in front of a tree. Our drawing, on the other hand, shows two children, probably a brother and sister, and the artist has captured their innocence perfectly without turning them into miniature adults.
