Original Description
This exquisite portrait by Pompeo Girolamo Batoni depicts Robert Udny (1722-1802), a distinguished British diplomat and antiquarian, captured in mid-life with refined elegance. Batoni, the preeminent portraitist of 18th-century Rome, presents Udny in half-length composition wearing a sumptuous gold-trimmed coat, his right hand gracefully holding a tricorn hat and gloves - accessories symbolizing his aristocratic status. The genius of the painting lies in Batoni's masterful combination of grand manner portraiture with veduta elements, as seen in the meticulously rendered Temple of the Sibyl at Tivoli glowing in the atmospheric distance. This dual focus captures Udny's dual identity as both an Enlightenment gentleman and devoted Italophile. Batoni's signature polished brushwork and luminous palette elevate the portrait beyond mere representation, placing it among his finest Anglo-Italian commissions that influenced generations of Grand Tour portraits. The work exemplifies Batoni's unique position bridging late Baroque sensibilities and emerging Neoclassical ideals.
For display consideration, this portrait demands an appropriately dignified setting - ideally in a wood-paneled study or formal sitting room with 18th-century inspired furnishings. The warm gold accents in the coat beautifully complement rich mahogany tones or gilded frame detailing. Given its probable dimensions (around 50 x 40 inches for Batoni's typical half-length formats), it requires substantial wall space with museum-quality lighting to appreciate the delicate sfumato effects. Hang at eye-level in a symmetrical arrangement between classical pilasters or as the focal point above an antique console table, allowing the Tivoli landscape to visually "breathe". For contemporary offices, pair with clean-lined Federal style furniture to bridge historical and modern aesthetics. The painting's sophisticated color scheme harmonizes wonderfully with deep emerald greens or hushed gray-blue wall tones.
