Opie, a name that echoes through history, is not just a company but also associated with several notable figures and artworks. One such connection lies in the realm of art itself, where Opie refers to John Opie, an English artist who lived from 1761 to 1807. His talent knew no bounds as he created masterpieces like "Sacrifice of Jephthah's Daughter, " which was later engraved by another artist named Opie. But the story doesn't end there; it also finds its place in the world of portraiture. In a captivating painting titled "Group Portrait of Mary, Charlotte, Caroline and Eliza, " we see the daughters of Christopher immortalized on canvas. This work dates back to 1830 and was crafted by an unknown creator who skillfully captured their essence. Delving further into history reveals intriguing connections involving individuals like Colonel Lachlan Macquarie and Sir John Morshead, Bart. , Lord Warden of the Stanneries during the late 18th century. These prominent figures were part of an era when Opie's influence extended beyond art circles. Even Mr. Quick from Zennor, Cornwall had his moment under Opie's gaze around 1780. Though details about this encounter remain shrouded in mystery due to an unknown creator behind this artwork. Opie wasn't limited to capturing human subjects alone; animals too found their place within its frame. The Reverend George Scobell appears as a child holding his loyal companion Fop in a portrait dating back to approximately 1780 – yet again showcasing Opie's ability to capture both innocence and companionship. Moving forward into the early-mid-19th century brings us face-to-face with Samuel Freeman's creation titled "Who did with her according to his vow. " This piece leaves us pondering what solemn vow led someone down such a path.
