AFTER ADRIEN CARPANTIERS. Roubiliac with the Model for Garrick's Shakespeare (Walpole's "Anecdotes of Painting in England, " vol. 4)

Roubiliac with the Model for Garrick's Shakespeare (Walpole's "Anecdotes of Painting in England," vol. 4). Artist: After Adrien Carpantiers (British, active 1739-78). Dimensions: Plate: 8 1/16 × 5 1/16 in. (20.5 × 12.8 cm) Sheet: 9 3/4 × 6 5/8 in. (24.7 × 16.8 cm). Engraver: James William Cook (British, active 1819-62). Sitter: Louis François Roubiliac (British (born France), Lyons 1695/1702-1762 London). Date: 1827. The leading French-born sculptor Roubiliac worked in London from 1730 and here models Shakespeare in clay. The engraving is based on a lively painting by Carpantiers (National Portrait Gallery, London and Yale Center for British Art), and versions of the model are preserved at the Victoria and Albert Museum and Folger Shakespeare, Library. In 1758, a related life-size marble was installed in David Garrick's Temple to Shakespeare at Hampton on the Thames near Twickenham, later given to the British Museum, and is now installed at the British Library. Shakespeare's pose is both thoughtful and dynamic, his sturdy desk indicates the lasting character of his writings, while the swirling cloak and arrested gesture convey creative genius.
