One of the most remarkable portraits in #BritishBaroque @tate. Lady Elizabeth Cromwell by Kneller (1702) has the feel of something produced at the end of the century rather than the start. Great rococo frame though.

Kneller very helpfully painted the latest character on the anvil: William Talbot, who was successively bishop of #Oxford, #Salisbury and #Durham. Notoriously ambitious, Talbot made the most of his final appointment as a 'Prince Bishop' having missed out on #Canterbury
