18th Century Oil on Canvas Portrait, Major Alexander Brown in Military Uniform.
18th Century Oil on Canvas Portrait, Major Alexander Brown in Military Uniform.

18th Century Oil on Canvas Portrait, Major Alexander Brown in Military Uniform.

By Sir David Wilkie

Located in Cotignac, FR

18th Century Military portrait of a young officer in Napoleonic period military dress. The painting is not signed but the subject is Major Alexander Brown. The work is oil on canvas later mounted on board and presented in a fine 'Regence style' carved gilt frame. There are labels to the back referring to the subject, 'Major Brown of Trinity' and a framers trade label from Edinburgh. A magnificent and imposing portrait of a young military officer in the prime of his life. His red uniform adorned with fine buttons, fringed epaulettes and high gilt collar. His ruddy complexion offset by his stylish hair, a quiff and swept forward to the sides as was the fashion at the time. Sir David Wilkie RA (18 November 1785 – 1 June 1841) was a Scottish painter, especially known for his portraits, including formal royal ones, and scenes from his travels to Europe and the Middle East. He painted successfully in a wide variety of genres, including historical scenes. His main base was in London, but he died and was buried at sea, off Gibraltar, returning from his first trip to the Middle East. He was sometimes known as the "people's painter". He was Principal Painter in Ordinary to King William IV and Queen Victoria. Apart from royal portraits, his best-known painting today is probably The Chelsea Pensioners Reading the Waterloo Dispatch of 1822 in Apsley House. Sir David Wilkie was actually admitted in 1799 (despite only being 14) through the influence of the Earl of Leven...

19th century English folk art portrait of a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel dog

19th century English folk art portrait of a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel dog

Located in Woodbury, CT

19th century English folk art portrait of a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel dog in a landscape. This is a desirable antique folk art portrait. Most of these paintings were unsigned and alas the artists were never listed. This folk art style was widely copied by painters from all different ages which is why it is so rare to find a genuine period and antique example of this genre. This piece is expertly painted and has all the character of the best of the English folk art school from the mid 19th century. The painting has been relined and restretched in the UK. It is framed in an antique frame which might be the original. Provenance Iona Antique London, the best dealers of English folk art paintings
