1794
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Lord Rich is a 1794 by Francesco Bartolozzi, a Romanticism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This portrait shows a man in a hat and a loose-fitting shirt. He looks to the right, his expression serious. The artist has used light and shadow to create depth and dimension. The subject's face is rendered in fine detail, with subtle gradations of tone that give a sense of volume and texture. The background is a soft, muted color that helps the figure stand out. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of drama and tension, drawing the viewer's eye to the subject's face.
Francesco Bartolozzi (21 September 1727 – 7 March 1815) was an Italian engraver, whose most productive period was spent in London. He is noted for popularizing the "crayon" method of engraving.
