Absolutely beautiful Vintage pair (1980’s) The Pair Purchased in Dec 1986 for about $400 (The receipt of purchase is still available & attached behind the frames). 20” x 15” About the Artists ; English artists; “”Thomas Lawrence “”1794 Painting ; “Pinkie “ “”Thomas Gainsborough””(1727-1788), “ 1770 Painting; “The Blue Boy” Aside from the obvious facts that they were both portrait artists, both named Thomas, and both incredibly talented, the two Thomas’ were also big-time supporters of their trade. Separated by a generation in age,    Thomas Gainsborough, the elder of the two, was a founding member in The Royal Academy of Arts which opened in London in 1768 as an exhibition venue and an educational support center for artists. “Thomas Lawrence “”became its 4th president in 1820. While it is known that Lawrence was an admirer of Gainsborough’s work, it is uncertain if the two ever met . Painted somewhere around 1770, by famed British artist; “”Thomas Gainsborough””(1727-1788), The Blue Boy, is thought to be the commissioned portrait of Jonathan Buttall, who came from a wealthy English iron-trading family. At the time the portrait was completed, Jonathan was about 18 years old.   His father had died two years earlier leaving Jonathan to run the retail iron business and attend to the massive fortune it procured. Pinkie and The Blue Boy as a couple are the result of time-worn perception and assumption. Painted by two different artists in two different decades, Pinkie and Blue were never meant to be together. It wasn’t until the 1920s, roughly 150 years after they were painted, that this romantic perception took hold thanks to American railroad tycoon and enthusiastic art collecto,r Henry Edwards Huntington. Purchased in England during the American heyday of British portraiture, Huntington brought these two paintings across the ocean to California where he placed them in his library opposite one another… Absolutely beautiful pieces from 1980’s in absolutely mint condition. The oval shape frames are made of gorgeous wood with beautiful hues patterns of natural wood. Glass covers….
