18th century portrait of sisters Lady Catherine and lady Jane Brydges
By James Maubert
Located in Bath, Somerset
This large double portrait depicts the sisters Lady Catherine and Lady Jane Brydges, the daughters of John Brydges, the Marquess of Carnarvon (1703-1727). They are seated on a stone ledge within in an idealised park landscape with a stone fountain on one side and sumptuous silk drapery to the other. They hold a garland of flowers by a blue silk ribbon around a lamb seated between them, a representation of romantic pastoral simplicity which was popular in English painting at the time.
Oil on canvas in a period 'Lely' panel frame with attached title plates.
Canvas: 116 x 150cm (45 1/2 x 59in)
Frame size: 137 x 172cm (54 x 67 1/2in)
Provenance: By descent through the eldest daughter Catherine to the Hoskyns branch of the family to the present day, who by marriage were also the descendants of Sir Christopher Wren.
A photograph of the painting is held in the National Portrait Gallery archive in London, dated 1955 and noted as being the property of Sir John Hoskyns, who later became a prominent politician in Thatcher's government.
Catherine (1725-1807) and Jane (1727-1776) were the daughters of John Brydges, Marquess of Carnarvon, Viscount Wilton and heir apparent to the Duke of Chandos and Catherine Tollemarche, daughter of Lionel, 3rd Earl of Dysart. Their eldest daughter, Catherine, shown wearing the russet gown with a blue mantel, married firstly William Berkeley Lyon and secondly in 1753, Edwyn Francis Stanhope of Stanwell House, Middlesex, with whom she had two children, Edwyn Francis in 1754 and Catherine in 1755. Catherine Stanhope married Sir Hungerford Hoskyns, 6th Baronet of Harewood Park, Herefordshire in 1774.
The younger daughter Jane Brydges, shown wearing a yellow silk gown, married her cousin, James Brydges of Pinner, but had no children.
James Maubert was born in Dublin in 1666, the son of a French Huguenot.
He was the pupil of Gaspar Smitz, the Dutch born artist who specialised in portraits, flowers and fruits, who came to England shortly after the Restoration in 1660 and lived in Dublin from the mid 1660's until his death in 1668.
The diarist George Vertue, who knew Maubert and who relied on him as a source for certain anecdotes concerning artists that appear in his Notebooks, states ‘Mr Maubert had his first instruction in drawing and painting from him in Dublin’.
Maubert worked for the Bathurst family, the Herberts and painted portraits of the Duchess of Bolton...

Shop Antique and Vintage Portrait Paintings
An elegant and sophisticated decorative touch in any living space, portrait paintings have remained popular throughout the years and are widely loved pieces of art for display in many homes today.
Portrait paintings are at least as old as ancient Egypt, where realistic, lifelike depictions of the recently deceased — commonly known as “mummy portraits” — were painted on wooden panels and affixed to mummies as part of the burial tradition.
For centuries, painters have used portraiture as a means of expressing a subject’s nobility, societal status and authority. Portraits were given as gifts in Renaissance Europe, and a portrait artist might have been commissioned to help mark a significant occasion such as a wedding or a promotion to high office. Prior to the advent of photography, which eventually replaced painted portraits as a quicker and more efficient way of capturing a person’s essence, the subject of a portrait had to sit for hours until the painter had finished. And during the 18th century in particular, if an artist commissioned for a portrait struggled with how to adequately memorialize and capture a subject’s likeness, sometimes a portrait painting wasn’t completed for up to a year.
Whether it’s part of the gallery-style approach to your living-room or dining-room walls or merely inspiration as you devise an eye-grabbing color scheme in your home, a portrait painting is a timeless decorative object for any interior. A landscape painting or sculpture might give you the kind of insight into a specific region of the world or a different culture that you can ascertain only through art. Similarly, when you take the time to learn about the subject of a portrait painting that you bring into your home — the sitter’s history, the relationship between the sitter and the artist should one exist, the story of how the portrait came to be — that work can become intensely personal in addition to its place as an object for an art-hungry corner of your apartment or house.
On 1stDibs, visit a vast collection of famous portrait paintings or works by emerging artists. Search by medium to find the right portrait paintings for your home in oil paint, synthetic resin paint and more. Find portrait paintings in a variety of styles, too, including contemporary, Impressionist and Pop art, or search by artist to find unique works created by painters such as Mark Beard, Steve Kaufman and Montse Valdés.
