Arthur, 1st Marquess of Donegall
Arthur, 1st Marquess of Donegall 1739-99 (c.1780). Gainsborough, Thomas 1727-1788.

Gainsborough was a highly accomplished landscape painter, as well as a portraitist of great skill and sensitivity, and in this full-length portrait he has introduced a delicate, atmospheric landscape that serves to lighten the formal elegance of the sitter?s pose. Arthur, 1st Marquess of Donegall, was a member of the Chichester family, who had played a major role in the early history of Belfast. Date: 1780 (circa)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning full-length portrait, created by the renowned artist Thomas Gainsborough in circa 1780, captures Arthur, 1st Marquess of Donegall in all his elegance and refinement. The Marquess, a member of the prominent Chichester family, played a significant role in the early history of Belfast. During the eighteenth century, full-length portraits were the most admired and expensive commissions due to the artistic challenges they presented. Gainsborough, a highly accomplished landscape painter as well as a portraitist of great skill and sensitivity, masterfully combined the formal elegance of the sitter's pose with a delicate, atmospheric landscape. The artist's use of natural light and soft colors creates a sense of depth and intimacy, inviting the viewer to explore the intricacies of the painting. The Marquess's elegant attire, combined with the serene landscape, serves to highlight the sitter's wealth and status, while the subtle expression on his face conveys a sense of wisdom and introspection. This exquisite work of art is a testament to Gainsborough's extraordinary talent and the artistic innovations of the eighteenth century.
