PLATE I.—MRS. HOARE AND CHILD. In the
Wallace Collection, London. (Frontispiece)
This picture is perhaps one of Sir Joshua Reynolds’ most beautiful compositions. The flesh painting is very fine and the handling of the dress remarkably free, its delicate colouring being in beautiful harmony with the surroundings. The painter gave us a portrait of the same child when he was a boy; it is now in the collection of Baron Albert de Rothschild. Sir Joshua made for this picture a sketch in oils which hangs in the Gallery at Bridgewater House.
