EDITORS COMMENTS
Thomas Lawrence's Master Lambton, also known as "The Red Boy," is a captivating and valuable masterpiece of the Regency period, created in 1825. This iconic painting, featuring a young boy with fiery red hair and dressed in a rich red robe, once belonged to the esteemed Lambton family of Durham, England. In 1932, the painting was put up for auction at Lambton Castle with high expectations, as it was considered a significant addition to any art collection. The anticipation surrounding the sale was palpable, as bidders from around the world eagerly awaited the opportunity to acquire this exquisite work of art. The bidding war began, and before long, a bid of 95,000 was put forth. However, despite the substantial offer, the painting was suddenly withdrawn from the auction. The reason for the withdrawal remains a mystery, leaving art enthusiasts and collectors to speculate about the possible motivations behind the decision. Some believe that the painting may have been sold privately before the auction, while others suggest that the Lambton family may have had second thoughts about parting with such a cherished piece of their heritage. Regardless of the circumstances, the withdrawal of Master Lambton from the auction was a significant moment in the art world, highlighting the enduring allure and value of this stunning portrait by Thomas Lawrence. The painting remains an enigma, a masterpiece that continues to captivate and inspire, and a reminder of the rich artistic heritage of the Lambton family and the city of Durham.
