EDITORS COMMENTS
This mezzotint print showcases the alluring Polly Kennedy, a renowned courtesan and mistress of Sir Charles Bunbury. Engraved by the talented Valentine Green in 1771, this portrait captures Kennedy's beauty and charisma with remarkable precision. Kennedy is depicted in a quarter-length pose, exuding confidence and elegance. Her fashionable Georgian costume perfectly complements her exquisite hairstyle, reflecting the trends of the era. As she gazes into the distance with an air of mystery, one cannot help but be drawn to her enchanting presence. Adding further charm to the composition is Kennedy's loyal pet dog by her side. This delightful detail highlights not only her affection for animals but also adds a touch of warmth to the overall image. Edward Francis Cunningham (Francesco Calza) skillfully reproduced this artwork from an original painting or drawing, ensuring that every intricate detail was captured faithfully. The result is a stunning portrayal that immortalizes Polly Kennedy's allure for generations to come. Now part of a private collection, this mezzotint print offers us a glimpse into both historical fashion and society during this period. It serves as a testament to Valentine Green's exceptional talent as an engraver while celebrating Polly Kennedy's status as one of society's most captivating figures.
