EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Study of the Duke of York, 1923" by renowned artist John Singer Sargent. The image captures a moment in time when this remarkable piece was gifted to Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon from the American Ambassador. It was featured in The Illustrated London News Wedding Number on April 28th, 1923. The study portrays the Duke of York, who would later become King George VI, in an informal yet regal manner. Sargent's masterful brushstrokes bring out every detail of his subject's countenance, highlighting both strength and vulnerability. This portrait serves as a testament to Sargent's artistic brilliance and his ability to capture not only physical likeness but also inner depth. The significance of this artwork lies not only in its artistic merit but also in its historical context.
