George Romney
ARTISTGeorge Romney was born on 15 December 1734 in Dalton-in-Furness, Lancashire, the son of the cabinetmaker John Romney. He died on 15 November 1802 in Kendal, Westmorland. At the end of the 18th century, Romney is considered a modern portrait painter; he had acquired a particularly high reputation within British society. In his works, the artist avoided delving into the characters of his models. This dispassionate flattery was the cornerstone of his particular success among his patrons in the upper class. The line dominated the colourful in his depictions, with the light poses and flowing transitions underlining the smooth pattern of his compositions.
