( British, 1723 - 1792 )
A compositional sketch for the portrait of Lady Louisa Manners, later Countess of Dysart (17451840)
Materials:
Very few works of this type by Reynolds survive. There are however five sepia compositional sketches of portraits at the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge. 1
Size Notes:
161 by 119 mm
Edition:
The present sketch relates to the finished oil painting and when it was sold in 1999 Dr David Mannings suggested that it may have been painted by Reynolds himself or by one of his studio assistants such as Giuseppe Marchi (1735-1808), in order to help the studio in 'laying in' full size compositions on the canvas.
