EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the famous painting "Lady Hamilton as a Bacchante" by George Romney. The artwork, created in 1785, depicts Lady Emma Hamilton (1765-1815) in a stunning portrayal of mythological inspiration. Set against an outdoor backdrop in England's countryside, Lady Hamilton exudes elegance and grace. Dressed in vibrant red attire, she stands with her loyal pet dog by her side. Her direct gaze captures the viewer's attention, radiating eagerness and enthusiasm. The artist skillfully incorporates elements of Greek mythology into the portrait, portraying Lady Hamilton as a maenad or bacchante - followers of the god Dionysus known for their wild revelry. The image transports us back to the 18th century when this masterpiece was created but also holds relevance to its publication date in London during the 1930s. It appeared in The Connoisseur Volume 103 from Otto Limited and is now preserved for future generations by The Print Collector. Lady Emma Hamilton herself was a remarkable figure who captivated society with her beauty and charm. Known also as Emma Hart or Amy Lyon before marrying Sir William Hamilton, she became renowned for her relationships with influential men such as Lord Nelson. This print not only celebrates George Romney's artistic talent but also pays homage to Lady Emma Hamilton's enduring legacy as an icon of beauty and allure throughout history.
