Scholars and enthusiasts alike will revel in this ambitious
two-volume catalogue raisonne of Thomas Gainsborough's portraits
and copies of Old Master works. The catalogue contains
approximately 1,100 paintings, including nearly 200 works newly
attributed to the British master, as well as updated information
about his subjects and specially commissioned photography. Each
portrait entry includes the biography of the sitter-including
several newly identified-the painting's provenance, and exhibitions
in which each work was shown. Gainsborough's copies after Old
Masters, painted in admiration and used to assimilate their style
of painting into his own work, are documented here as well.
Research includes in-depth analysis of newspaper archives and other
printed material to establish the date of a painting's production,
chart the development of the artist's style, and assess the
impression the work made within the context of its time. Published
in association with the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British
Art
