EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Richard Boyle, the 3rd Earl of Burlington, and his wife Lady Dorothy Savile in all their regal splendor. Painted in 1723 by William Aikman, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 96.5x116.8 cm and is currently housed at the Harris Museum and Art Gallery in Preston, Lancashire. In this exquisite artwork, Lord Burlington stands tall with an air of sophistication befitting his aristocratic status. His dignified presence is accentuated by a skull cap atop his head and a turban draped gracefully around his neck. With a compass in hand, he symbolizes not only his Irish heritage but also his passion for science and patronage of the arts. By Lord Burlington's side stands Lady Dorothy Savile, radiating elegance and grace. As a prominent figure within high society, she exudes poise while wearing her fashionable attire of the time. The painting beautifully captures the essence of this noble couple's union – their shared love for knowledge, culture, and refinement evident through their refined appearances. With its intricate details meticulously rendered by Aikman's skilled brushstrokes, this portrait serves as both a historical document showcasing two influential figures from the past as well as an artistic masterpiece that continues to captivate viewers today.
