EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases John Jervis, the First Earl of St. Vincent, painted by William Beechey around 1805. The oil on canvas artwork measures 112.6x86.4 cm and is currently held in a private collection. In this magnificent portrayal, Jervis exudes authority and confidence as he dons his ceremonial uniform adorned with the ribbon and star of the Order of the Bath. Known for his remarkable victory at the Battle of Cape St. Vincent in 1797 against the Spanish fleet, Jervis rose to prominence as an admiral and commander-in-chief of the Mediterranean fleet during the Napoleonic Wars. The painting captures Jervis in a three-quarter length pose, emphasizing his strong presence and naval hero status. His sword rests at his side while a vibrant red sash adds a touch of elegance to his attire. The intricate details such as epaulettes on his shoulders further highlight his distinguished rank within the navy. Beechey's masterful brushwork brings life to this historical figure, immortalizing him as one of Britain's most celebrated naval commanders. With its rich colors and meticulous attention to detail, this portrait print serves as a testament to Jervis' significant contributions both on land and sea. Displayed by eLawrence Steigrad Fine Arts in New York, this extraordinary piece offers viewers an opportunity to delve into history while appreciating Beechey's artistic talent through Bridgeman Images' high-quality reproduction.
