EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the grandeur and authority of Charles, 2nd Duke of Richmond, Lennox and Aubigny. Painted by Charles Philips in approximately 1730, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 74x61 cm and is currently housed at the Society of Antiquaries of London. Charles Lennox was a prominent figure during the Georgian era, known for his influential role as a patron of the arts. In this formal portrait, he exudes an imperious presence befitting his noble status. Dressed in regal blue attire adorned with intricate silk sashes and wearing a striking hairstyle, he commands attention from viewers. The artist skillfully portrays Charles Lennox's full length figure against a richly textured background. The composition highlights his dignified stature while emphasizing his aristocratic lineage as the grandson of King Charles II. Notably, beyond his aristocratic pursuits, Charles Lennox had a passion for cricket which earned him recognition as one of its early patrons. This aspect adds depth to his character portrayed in this grandiose painting. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured every detail and nuance within this remarkable artwork. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back to an era defined by opulence and refinement.
