Daniels, a talented artist of the 19th century, this artwork measures an impressive 140x110 cm and is housed in the Bradford Art Galleries and Museums in West Yorkshire, UK. Sir Titus Salt was not only a successful manufacturer but also a prominent politician and philanthropist from Bradford. His most notable achievement was the construction of Salts Textile Mill along with the accompanying village of Saltaire. This visionary project aimed to provide better living conditions for workers during the Industrial Revolution. In this portrait, Sir Titus Salt sits comfortably in an elegant armchair, exuding confidence and wisdom through his bearded countenance. The three-quarter length composition allows us to appreciate his refined English attire while emphasizing his strong northern roots. The painting's attention to detail extends beyond its subject; it showcases exquisite furniture and furnishings that add depth to the overall composition. With its rich historical context and artistic excellence, this remarkable piece offers viewers a glimpse into both Sir Titus Salt's legacy as well as life in Victorian England.
