Alongside Thomas Hudson, Allan Ramsey was one of the most famous portrait painters of the 18th century in Great Britain. The eldest son of a famous Scottish poet and book antiquarian, Ramsey was named after his father. Ramsey completed his school education in his home town of Edinburgh. Art was also one of his subjects there, but did not go beyond the simple basics. Therefore Ramsey moved to London at the age of 20 to study with the Swedish portraitist Hans Hysing. After about 2 years Ramsey left Hysing and travelled on to Italy to continue his studies. Between 1736 and 1738 Ramsay lived in Naples and Rome. There he was taught by Francesco Solimena and Francesco Fernandi, also known as Imperiali. Both artists were to have a decisive influence on Ramsey's later work.

The outer strip of the artwork is mirrored around the sides, so the full picture stays on the face of the canvas instead of disappearing around the corner.

A heavy 400 gsm canvas with a matte woven surface. There is no glass in front of it, so the print stays readable from any angle and in any light.

Every room view above is drawn to the real scale of the size you selected, measured against the furniture in the photograph — so the wall space is a fair estimate, not decoration.
