Revival of Portraiture March 7, 2002 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
The exhibition of some of the works of George Romney is quite in line with the currently popularity of portraits, following the success of the recent exhibitions of John Singer Sargent and Restoration Portraiture. This catalogue shows all the works in the exhibition including some not on show at all the venues. The book shows well the progression of a local northern artist into a national one through such works as the Leveson-Gower Children and the Warren Family. As well as some earlier works, which show homage to Thomas Hudson (Mrs Strickland), the exhibition and the guide show how close he was in style to Sir Joshua Reynolds (Mrs Yates as the Tragic Muse). This book is a great introduction to a great artist, until recently only available to visitors to country houses.
