EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating group portrait that offers a glimpse into the lives of an affluent Georgian family. Painted in oil on canvas, this masterpiece was formerly attributed to Arthur Devis and measures 98.4x115 cm. The composition showcases the formal setting of an elegant interior, where the Buckley-Boar family members are gathered around a table engaged in conversation. The parents, dressed impeccably in period attire, exude authority and sophistication. The mother captivates with her grey silk dress and crinoline underskirt, while the father emanates confidence and stature. Their children and siblings complete the scene, adding a sense of warmth and familial unity. Each figure is meticulously rendered by the skilled English School artist from the 18th century. This painting serves as both a historical document and a work of artistry, providing insight into societal norms during this era. It captures not only the fashion trends but also hints at their social status within society. Now housed at Yale Center for British Art as part of Paul Mellon Collection in USA, this remarkable piece invites viewers to step back in time and appreciate its exquisite details. With its timeless appeal and out-of-copyright status, "The Buckley-Boar Family" continues to be cherished by art enthusiasts worldwide.
