1670 Blount Hester Mainwaring


17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite portrait captures Hester Wase, later Lady Blount, in her prime during the late 17th century. Born into the esteemed Wase family, Hester first married Sir John Mainwaring, with whom she is believed to have had several children. However, Sir John's untimely death left Hester a widow at a young age. Subsequently, Hester married Sir Henry Blount, a prominent figure in English society. Sir Henry was a Member of Parliament, a Knight of the Bath, and a Joint-Treasurer of the Chamber. The union between Hester and Sir Henry brought her into the influential Blount family, further elevating her social standing. The portrait showcases Hester's refined beauty and elegant attire, reflecting the opulence and sophistication of the era. Her intricately embroidered gown, adorned with lace and pearls, is a testament to the wealth and status of her new husband. The delicate lace collar and cuffs, as well as her carefully coiffed hair, add to her regal appearance. The portrait artist skillfully captures the subtle expressions of Hester's face, revealing her intelligence, grace, and inner strength. The soft lighting and rich colors of the painting enhance the intricacies of her attire and the intrigue of her eyes, making this a truly captivating work of art. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life of Hester Wase, a woman of great beauty, charm, and resilience, who navigated the complexities of 17th-century English society with grace and poise. The image serves as a reminder of the social intricacies and the importance of marriage and alliances in the aristocracy during this period.
