EDITORS COMMENTS

Ward was renowned for his remarkable depictions of English history during the 17th century and French history throughout the revolution and first empire. However, he also delved into capturing scenes from English social life in the 18th century, with a particular fondness for portraying Dr Johnson and Oliver Goldsmith. The portrait showcases Ward's distinguished appearance as a Victorian gentleman. His neatly groomed beard and sideburns frame his face with an air of sophistication. Dressed impeccably in formal attire complete with a bow tie, Ward exudes professionalism befitting his occupation as a painter. As a Royal Academician, Ward's artistic talent earned him great recognition within the art world.
