Original Description
The portrait A Gentleman With Powdered Hair En Queue, Wearing Scarlet Coat With Silver Buttons, White Waistcoat, Tied Stock And Frilled Cravat by Richard Crosse (1742–1810) exudes an aura of 18th-century aristocratic elegance. Painted in the refined tradition of British miniature portraiture, the work captures the sitter’s dignified posture and meticulous attire, from the powdered hair tied in a queue (characteristic of the late Georgian era) to the vibrant scarlet coat adorned with delicate silver buttons. Crosse, a master of enamel and watercolor miniatures, renders the figure with exquisite detail, embodying the Rococo influence of delicate textures and soft luminosity. This piece is a testament to the artist’s skill in portraying elite society’s fashions and sensibilities, situating it within the broader context of portrait miniatures as intimate, portable tokens of identity and status in 18th-century Britain.
For modern interiors, this artwork would harmonize beautifully in a traditional or neoclassical setting. Its rich scarlet and silver palette calls for complementary hues—deep navy orcream walls would allow the portrait to stand out, while gilt or dark wood frames would enhance its period charm. Ideal for a study or formal living room, the miniature scale (typical of Crosse’s works) suits intimate spaces like a bookshelf or mantelpiece. Pair it with other Georgian-era decor, such as Chippendale furniture or a damask-upholstered armchair, to create a cohesive aesthetic. In an office, it could lend gravitas to a mahogany desk, with the red tones subtly echoed in leather-bound books or Persian rugs. The piece’s refined details demand thoughtful lighting—a directed spotlight or soft ambient glow would highlight its intricate craftsmanship.
