EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless elegance of Mr and Mrs Fraser, a couple from the late 18th century. Painted by Arthur William Devis, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures their refined presence and offers a glimpse into their world. The husband and wife are depicted in exquisite Georgian dress, reflecting their aristocratic status. The setting of the portrait is an enchanting outdoor estate, adding a touch of natural beauty to the composition. Mr Fraser dons a plumed hat that adds an air of sophistication to his appearance, while Mrs Fraser holds a sketching tool, hinting at her artistic inclinations. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the delicate lace adorning Mrs Fraser's gown to the intricate patterns on Mr Fraser's waistcoat. This double portrait not only immortalizes their physical likeness but also conveys their social standing within society. Now housed in Yale Center for British Art as part of Paul Mellon Collection, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its grace and charm. As we gaze upon this print today, we are transported back in time to witness the grandeur and refinement that characterized high society during the Georgian era.
