About the Item
Oil on canvas
Image size: 15 1/2 x 11 1/4 inches (39.5 x 28.75 cm)
Original gilt frame
This is a touching head and shoulders portrait of a young peasant girl. Wearing a headscarf, and covering her shoulders in a shawl, she gazes out away from the viewer with glistening eyes. It is clear from her ruddy red cheeks and wind swept appearance that she has spent a considerable amount of time outside.
Despite her somewhat raggedness there is still an undeniable beauty about the girl. From her pursed lips and the wisps of hair that fall across her face a gentleness is conveyed that provides a distinct contrast to the hard life that she has undoubtedly lived.
In 19th century Europe, as artists began to depict themes of modern life, they could not help address the subject of labour and labourers. Peasants and urban workers both became common subjects. Many artists did not seek to idealise their endeavours but instead to portray them, as seen here, as earnest hard working people that needed to be shown.

Portrait of a Girl, 18th Century Oil Old Master
By George Knapton
Located in London, GB
George 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 depiction of a young girl epitomises child portraiture of the late eighteenth century, in which painters such as William Beechey, Joshua Reynolds, Thomas Gainsborough had begun to discover and express the true character of children, in contrast to the stiff, miniature-adults of previous generations.
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...
