henry raeburn was born in 1756 at stockbridge a former village now within the city of edinburgh. He was a scottish portrait painter who even served as such to king george iv in scotland. He started as an apprentice to the goldsmith james gilliland of edinburgh, but he eventually took to the production of carefully finished portrait miniatures. Later he stated with oil painting, which he was self-taught. He spent two years studying in rome and once he returned to edinburgh, he began a successful career as a portrait painter.
the portrait presented is unpublished and the subject has not yet been identified. Despite this, the social status of the man depicted is evident from the clothes he wears; the black double-breasted tailcoat with brass buttons, the top hat and walking stick. In the background we can admire a rural landscape where a flock of sheep can be distinguished. The painting has two light sources; natural light coming from the setting sun in the background, and artificial light from above and from the left. i have official proof of authenticity such as vintage catalogs,
designer records,
or other literature sources and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising
from
misattribution less
