Original Description
Thomas Gainsborough’s Portrait of Robert Price, Esquire of Foxley (1717–1761), Half-length captures the refined elegance of mid-18th-century British aristocracy with remarkable sensitivity. Painted circa 1757–59, this half-length portrait exudes quiet confidence through Gainsborough’s masterful brushwork—fluid yet precise—rendering Price’s satin breeches and lace cravat with tactile realism. Set against a muted, atmospheric background, the sitter’s contemplative gaze and relaxed posture reflect Gainsborough’s transition from Rococo flourishes to his signature naturalism, foreshadowing his later rivalry with Reynolds. As one of his early aristocratic commissions, the work exemplifies Gainsborough’s ability to blend status and intimacy, securing his reputation as a premier portraitist of Georgian England. Today, it remains a poignant study of character and social identity within the canon of British portraiture.
For a sophisticated yet approachable display, consider hanging this portrait in a wood-paneled study or a muted-toned office to complement its historical gravitas. Ideal above a Georgian-style desk or within a curated gallery wall, its 50 x 40-inch scale demands eye-level placement—preferably with directional lighting to accentuate Gainsborough’s delicate glazing. Pair it with rich, earthy hues like olive green or burnt umber in upholstery or rugs to harmonize with the painting’s warm palette. Avoid stark modern furniture; instead, opt for Queen Anne or Chippendale-inspired pieces to echo the era’s craftsmanship. In a residential setting, place it beside botanical prints or a gilded mirror to enhance its period charm while preventing visual competition—letting Gainsborough’s artistry command the space with quiet authority.
