EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Company of Painters" and attributed to Sir James Thornhill, dates back to the early 18th century. The artwork, created in Britain, showcases a group of five distinguished male figures gathered around a table, deep in conversation. Among them are Mr. Dahl, Mr. Thornhill, Mr. Wootton, Mr. Gibbs, and Mr. Wanby, all renowned painters of their time. The intricately detailed drawing, executed in brush and brown wash over graphite on ivory laid paper, is a testament to Thornhill's mastery of the monochrome palette. The use of chalk and sepia adds depth and texture to the artwork, creating an authentic and heritage feel. The scene captures the essence of a professional gathering, with the artists engaged in a serious discussion, likely about their latest projects or techniques. The casual setting, with the men seated around a simple table, adds an intimate and personal touch to the artwork. Sir James Thornhill (1676-1734) was a prolific British artist, known for his large-scale frescoes and decorative painting. This print, however, showcases his skill in the realm of drawing and sketching. Thornhill's ability to capture the essence of his subjects and convey their personalities through his art is evident in this work. The "Company of Painters" is an invaluable addition to any art collection, offering a glimpse into the lives of these influential artists and the world of art during the 18th century in England.
