EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases John Whetham of Kirklington, a distinguished figure from the 18th century. Painted by Joseph Wright of Derby in 1779-1780, this oil on canvas artwork measures 127x101.6 cm and is currently housed at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles, USA. The subject of the painting exudes an air of authority and sophistication. Dressed in fur-trimmed attire with a stylish hat adorning his head, Whetham's presence commands attention. A border collie stands faithfully beside him, symbolizing loyalty and companionship. Intriguingly, Whetham holds a spear in his hand, hinting at his involvement in hunting or perhaps reflecting his adventurous spirit. The details captured by Wright are remarkable; every brushstroke brings out the texture of Whetham's clothing and the dog's sleek coat. This portrait not only captures the physical likeness of its subject but also offers insight into the social context of that era. It provides us with a glimpse into Nottinghamshire society during this period through its depiction of fashion choices and symbols associated with status. As we admire this exquisite print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back to a time when elegance was paramount and individuals like John Whetham were celebrated for their contributions to society.
