EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite hand-tinted engraving is a portrait of Augusta Lowther, Countess of Fane, who was the wife of the 1st Earl of Lonsdale at the time this image was created. The portrait was based on a sketch by Sir Thomas Lawrence, a renowned British painter of the Victorian era. Sir Thomas Lawrence was known for his portraits of the British aristocracy and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. Augusta Lowther is depicted in the portrait seated in a comfortable chair, with a portly man, believed to be her father, standing behind her. She is dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, wearing a high-waisted coat and a voluminous skirt, accessorized with a delicate waistcoat and a fashionable bonnet. Her hand rests on the arm of the chair, adding a sense of calm and composure to the image. The portrait was created using the technique of hand-tinting, which involved adding color to a engraving by hand. This technique was popular during the Victorian era and was used to add vibrancy and depth to engravings, making them more visually appealing. The image was produced by Frederick Christian Lewis, a skilled engraver, and was published as part of P.G. Patmore's Cabinet of Gems, a collection of engravings and illustrations published by Ackermann, a leading publisher of the time. The Cabinet of Gems was known for its high-quality reproductions of works by renowned artists, making this portrait a valuable addition to any collection of Victorian-era art.
