Goya’s portrait of Bartolomé Sureda y Miserol (c1803/4) is one of my favourites. The image is one of a debonair young man with the artist using flashes of colour to bring excitement to the image. Miserol was a clever man who became an industrialist.

James Naysmith (1808-1890) made his steam hammers and pile drivers at the Bridgewater Foundry in Manchester. He was first hired by Henry Maudslay after he built a high-pressure steam engine to impress the #industrialist.
