EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases John Collins of Devizes, a prominent figure in the late 18th century. Created by the talented artist John Russell in 1799, this pastel on paper artwork measures an impressive 76.2x64.1 cm and is currently housed at the Yale Center for British Art as part of the esteemed Paul Mellon Collection. Collins, depicted here with his distinctively ruddy complexion and balding head, exudes an air of wisdom and authority befitting his role as a farmer from Wiltshire, England. The inclusion of a majestic ram with its magnificent horns further emphasizes his connection to agriculture and livestock. The attention to detail in this piece is remarkable; every stroke highlights Collins' weathered features and captures his character with precision. It's evident that Russell sought to immortalize not only Collins himself but also the pride he took in his profession. Perhaps this portrait was commissioned to commemorate Collins' achievements within farming circles or even as recognition for winning a prestigious agricultural prize. Regardless of its purpose, it serves as a testament to both the skillful artistry of John Russell and the significance of individuals like John Collins who played vital roles in shaping rural life during this era.
