EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases the elegant Mrs. Richard Alexander Oswald, also known as Louisa Johnston. Painted by the renowned British artist Sir Henry Raeburn in 1794, this oil masterpiece measures an impressive 48 1/2 x 40 7/8 inches (1232 x 1038 cm). Louisa Johnston was a Scottish beauty who tragically passed away in 1797 at the young age of forty-four. This painting immortalizes her grace and charm during her prime years. The year it was painted coincided with her marriage to Richard Alexander Oswald, which took place in 1793. Notably, Louisa's allure caught the attention of celebrated Scottish poet Robert Burns, who dedicated a song to her titled "Wat Ye Wha Yon Town". This tribute further attests to her remarkable beauty and captivating presence. Sir Henry Raeburn skillfully captures Louisa's essence through his masterful brushstrokes and meticulous attention to detail. The portrait radiates elegance and sophistication while showcasing Louisa's natural poise. Displayed against a neutral background, this striking piece is sure to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and historical significance. It serves as both a testament to Louisa Johnston's allure and Sir Henry Raeburn's exceptional talent as one of Britain's most esteemed portrait painters.
