About the Item

17th-Century English Portrait, Attributed to Sir Peter Lely A striking 17th-century English oil on canvas portrait, attributed to the renowned court painter Sir Peter Lely (1618–1680). This elegant composition captures a noble lady, her gaze poised and enigmatic, embodying the refined beauty characteristic of Lely’s portraiture. She is adorned in a delicate, off-the-shoulder white silk gown, with intricate lace detailing, a subtle nod to the fashion of the Restoration era. A luxurious Baroque pearl earring and a single-strand pearl necklace complement her graceful presence, adding to the portrait’s timeless sophistication. Rendered with Lely’s signature soft brushwork, the sitter is enveloped in a dark, atmospheric background, emphasizing her illuminated complexion and enhancing the depth of the composition. The painting is housed in an exquisite period-style giltwood frame, richly carved with intricate detailing that harmonizes perfectly with the portrait’s aristocratic elegance. Sir Peter Lely was the preeminent portraitist of the English Restoration court, celebrated for his ability to capture both the grandeur and intimate allure of his sitters. This portrait, exuding the hallmarks of his style, stands as a fine example of 17th-century English portraiture, likely depicting a lady of status from the court of Charles II. A remarkable addition to any collection of Old Master paintings, this work offers both historical significance and undeniable aesthetic appeal.

Late 17th Century Oil Portrait of a Lady

Located in Lymington, GB

An oil on canvas portrait of a young French courtier, circa 1690. This evocative antique French-school picture has been attributed to the portrait painter Jean-François de Troy (1679-1752). De Troy was famous as a portrait painter of fashionable society women. This is a very attractive late-17th century painting surviving in its original frame and stretcher. The canvas appears to be untouched. References: 'Jean François de Troy, The Alarm, or the Gouvernante Fidèle', at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. 'Jean François de Troy, Paris 1679 - Rome 1752', at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum. Laurie G. Winters, Troy, de, Grove Art Online, Oxford Art Online, Oxford University Press, 6 May 2016.
