EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the timeless beauty of Lucy Percy, Countess of Carlisle. Painted by the renowned artist Anthony van Dyck between 1637 and 1640, this oil on canvas print showcases her elegance and grace. The artwork measures an impressive 133.7x106.2 cm and is housed in Petworth House, Sussex, UK. Lucy Percy radiates confidence as she gazes directly at the viewer with a hint of a smile playing on her lips. Her attire exudes opulence, adorned with exquisite details such as pearls, brooches, and earrings that accentuate her aristocratic status. A stunning necklace graces her neck while delicate ringlets frame her face. The countess's beauty is further enhanced by flowers adorning her hair, lending a touch of natural charm to the composition. In one hand she holds a fur stole featuring a stoat emblematic of luxury and sophistication. In the background stands an ornate fountain symbolizing wealth and abundance. This painting is part of Van Dyck's series depicting four countesses for Petworth House; all young women ripe for marriage during their time. This remarkable piece not only serves as a testament to Van Dyck's mastery but also offers us an intimate glimpse into the world of high society during the seventeenth century. It encapsulates both Lucy Percy's individuality and reflects societal ideals prevalent among aristocrats at that time.
