EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil painting depicts The Most Honourable Frederick John Robinson, 6th Marquess of Londonderry, KG (1878-1949), during his tenure as Chancellor of The Queen's University of Belfast, from approximately 1924. The Marquess, an esteemed figure in Irish society, is depicted in formal attire, with a serious yet approachable expression. The painting, skillfully executed by renowned Irish artist Sir John Lavery (1856-1941), captures the Marquess's regal bearing and dignified presence. The Marquess of Londonderry's connection to The Queen's University of Belfast dates back to 1922, when he was appointed to the position of Chancellor. He held this esteemed role for over two decades, providing guidance and support to the university during a period of significant growth and development. Sir John Lavery, a leading figure in the Irish art scene, was an ideal choice to immortalize the Marquess in this official portrait. Lavery's masterful use of light and colour brings the painting to life, creating a vivid and enduring image of the Marquess in his role as Chancellor. This painting is a testament to the rich history and tradition of The Queen's University of Belfast, and serves as a reminder of the important contributions made by The Marquess of Londonderry during his time in office. The painting's authenticity and historical significance make it a valuable addition to any collection, and a fitting tribute to the legacy of both the Marquess and the university he served.
