SIR HENRY RAEBURN. Mrs. Richard Alexander Oswald (Louisa Johnston,? born about 1760, died 1797)

Mrs. Richard Alexander Oswald (Louisa Johnston, ?born about 1760, died 1797). Artist: Sir Henry Raeburn (British, Stockbridge, Scotland 1756-1823 Edinburgh, Scotland). Dimensions: 48 1/2 x 40 7/8 in. (123.2 x 103.8 cm). Date: ca. 1794. The portrait was painted about a year after the sitter's marriage in 1793 to Richard Alexander Oswald. In praise of her beauty, the Scottish poet Robert Burns wrote a song, "O, Wat ye Wha's in Yon Town."

The subject is shown seated outdoors holding a book, lost in thought.

Descripción:
Traducción automática: Sra. Richard Alexander Oswald (Louisa Johnston, ?nacida alrededor de 1760, fallecida en 1797). Artista: Sir Henry Raeburn (British, Stockbridge, Escocia 1756-1823 Edimburgo, Escocia). Dimensiones: 48 1/2 x 40 7/8 pulg. (123,2 x 103,8 cm). Fecha: ca. 1794. El retrato fue pintado aproximadamente un año después del matrimonio de la modelo en 1793 con Richard Alexander Oswald. En elogio de su belleza, el poeta escocés Robert Burns escribió una canción, "O, Wat ye Wha's in Yon Town". El sol poniente ilumina brillantemente el cielo a través de una pantalla de troncos de árboles y follaje, un dispositivo favorito de Raeburn a mediados de la década de 1790. El sujeto se muestra sentado al aire libre sosteniendo un libro, perdido en sus pensamientos.
