Description

Martin Archer Shee, Portrait of Sir William Fairlie Oil on canvas. 232 x 148 cm. Provenance Belgian private collection. Sir William Fairlie (1754-1825) was a successful merchant of the East India Company. Born into a Scottish merchant family, Fairlie ran an agency in India with trading links as far afield as China. As the largest ship owner in Calcutta, he traded in rice, indigo and cotton. After his return to London, he became a Member of Parliament. The Irish painter Sir Martin Archer Shee portrayed Fairlie at the height of his career. The present work must have been painted before 1817, as was another, almost identical version of the portrait with comparable dimensions (Christie`s London, 8th April 1998, lot 30). A mezzotint engraving by John Young after Shee´s composition, dated to the same year, is held in the National Portrait Gallery in London (NPG D36636). Sir Henry Raeburn also created a portrait of William Fairlie, showing him in advancing years. Martin Archer Shee, Porträt von Sir William Fairlie Öl auf Leinwand. 238 x 148 cm. Provenienz Belgische Privatsammlung. Sir William Fairlie (1754-1825) war ein erfolgreicher Kaufmann der East Indian Company. Der aus einer schottischen Händlerfamilie stammende Fairlie betrieb eine Agentur in Indien mit Handelsbeziehungen bis nach China. Als größter Schiffsbesitzer in Kalkutta handelte er mit Reis, Indigo und Baumwolle. Nach seiner Rückkehr nach London wurde er Member of Parliament. Der irische Maler Sir Martin Archer Shee porträtierte Fairlie auf dem Höhepunkt seiner Karriere. Vorliegendes Gemälde muss vor 1817 entstanden sein, ebenso wie eine weitere, nahezu identische Version des Porträts mit vergleichbaren Massen (Christie`s London, 8. April 1998, Los 30). Ein in dieses Jahr datierter Mezzotinto-Stich von John Young nach der Komposition Martin Archer Shees wird in der National Portrait Gallery in London verwahrt (NPG D36636). Auch Sir Henry Raeburn hat ein Portrait von William Fairlie geschaffen, das ihn im fortgerückten Alter zeigt.
