EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs. Catherine Macartney, later known as Mrs. Banks, is depicted in this stunning oil painting attributed to the English artist Strickland Lowry. The portrait, created around 1760-65, captures the elegance and refinement of the subject in her prime. Mrs. Macartney, who was born in Scotland, was the wife of John Macartney, a wealthy merchant and politician based in London. Her elegant attire, adorned with intricate lace and a delicate floral headdress, reflects the opulence of the era. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and texture, drawing the viewer into the portrait. The subtle expression on Mrs. Macartney's face suggests a quiet confidence and intelligence, making this a truly captivating work of art. The painting's rich colors and intricate details have been beautifully preserved over the centuries, allowing us to appreciate the artistry of Strickland Lowry and the beauty of the subject.
