Ever stopped to wonder who is the mysterious head who peers between the curtains of George Knapton’s portait of Richard Boyle, 3rd Earl of Burlington? And is it the same lady who is the model for the bust at Chiswick House & in the lost W. Kent altarpiece at St Clement Danes?
Enjoyed a visit to @DulwichGallery yesterday. Some of the paintings that caught my eye and their wonderful colours #Canaletto #Knapton #Gainsborough #DulwichPictureGallery
