EDITORS COMMENTS
Lewis R. Tomalin, 1909 (oil on canvas) by William Orpen captures the essence of a distinguished gentleman in the early 20th century. In this close-up portrait style, Lewis R. Tomalin is depicted with a contemplative expression, his arm resting on a sideboard as he leisurely smokes a pipe. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of the painting - from the intricate patterned curtain and checkered floor to Tomalin's well-groomed mustache and bearded face. The natural light streaming through the drapes adds depth and warmth to the scene. Tomalin's posture exudes relaxation as he leans on his elbow, lost in thought. His attire, a traditional British jacket and coat, reflects both modernity and tradition. Orpen skillfully captures not only Tomalin's physical appearance but also his inner world. Through this oil painting, we catch a glimpse into the memories and contemplations of an elderly man who has lived through significant moments in history. This artwork serves as an exquisite example of Orpen’s talent as an Irish artist known for his ability to convey emotion through portraiture. The soft furnishings surrounding Tomalin add elegance to the composition while emphasizing his refined taste. Lewis R. Tomalin remains frozen in time within this piece that invites viewers to contemplate their own thoughts alongside him.
