Watercolour portrait by Daniel Maclise, 1846.
Maclise was a master of Victorian charm, indeed he was a friend of Prince Albert. The Student (1862), A Bower with Passion Flowers (1865), A Winter Night’s Tale (c1867) & Madeleine after Prayer (1868)
Where Maclise differs from his contemporaries is his bright colours, his focus on narrative & an interest in Celtic & Gaelic legends. Waterfall at St Nighton’s Kieve, near Tintagel (1842), A Scene from Undine (1843) & Rosalind & Cecilia (1845)
Dramatic faces on dissected bodies!
I’ve been focusing on the WWII face for some time now, so I thought it’d be fun to write about some 19th cen imagery.
New short blog post on the faces in Joseph Maclise’s Surgical Anatomy!
