Item Description

This wonderful portrait miniature was painted in the year 1818. This Regency era portrait features a young male sitter in profile view. The watercolour was painted by the talented portrait artist, Albin Roberts Burt (b 1783 – d 1842).

Albin Roberts Burt (b 1783 – d 1842) was an experienced miniature portrait painter and engraver; due to his family connections he predominantly painted wealthy sitters. Albin’s brother, Henry Frederick Burt (b 1782 – d 1807), was secretary to Lord Nelson and his mother, Mary, was a friend of Nelson's mistress Emma Hamilton. Albin named one of his daughters, Emma Hamilton Burt (b 1812 – d 1912) after Emma Hamilton (b 1765 – d 1815). Albin named one of his sons, Nelson Burt (b 1813 – d 1822), after Horatio Nelson (b 1758 – d 1805).

The painting is on card and is housed behind convex glass in its original papier mache frame. The painting is signed by the artist bottom right and verso in reading ‘Drawn by A. R. Burt, Chester 1818.’

This is a wonderful painting by a talented and sought after artist.

Measuring: Frame width 4 ¾ inch (12 cm) by height 5 ½ inch (14 cm). Aperture width 2 ¼ inch (6 cm) by height 2 ¾ inch (7.5 cm).

Condition: Slight patchiness to sitter’s coat from where the old paint has reacted to damp walls over two centuries
