framed measurements overall: A very fine 19th century portrait of Izaak Walton by Thomas Walker Guillod, after the original by Jacob Huysmans. Painted in 1851, depicting the celebrated author of \'The Compleat Angler\' (circa 1672). The painting has the stamps of canvas supplier to verso,
‘C[harles] Dav[e]y, Artists Colourman, 83 Newman Street, Oxford St. London’. The painting is presented in the most wonderfully ornate hand-carved oval oak frame with stylised floral decoration which really is quite remarkable. An old manuscript label to frame verso with writing now partly indistinct and presumed in the artist’s hand, reads:
‘Copy from the original of Izaak Walton in Marlborough House, June 1851, T.W. Guillod’A fine version of the iconic portrait from life by Jacob Huysmans. The Huysman painting is now held by the National Portrait Gallery, London, having transferred from the Tate Gallery in 1957. At the time Guillod copied this, the original was held at Marlborough House, then being used as an overspill to the National Gallery following the large gift of the Robert Vernon collection in 1847. Thomas Walker Guillod (1812-1880) was a noted landscape and portrait painter, who worked in London, 1839-1860, and exhibited at the Royal Academy. His portrait of Sir Nicholas Mosley (1857) is held by the Salford Museum and Art Gallery.A very rare opportunity to acquire such a magnificent work. Condition report:
Some repairs to canvas, light retouchings, light scuffs and marks. Generally very good.
