Attributed to Richard Brompton (British, 1734-1782) A small child with a liver and white spaniel in a landscape oil on canvas 126 x 100cm (49 x 39in) Provenance: Acquired by the vendor's family in Scotland circa 1950 and by descent. Richard Brompton was a pupil of Benjamin Wilson and also of Johann Zoffany. He then went to Italy and spent some time in Rome, where he had lessons with Raphael Mengs. He was also introduced to the patronage of the Earl of Northampton, and accompanied the Earl to Venice when the Earl was appointed Ambassador to the Republic. In Venice Brompton painted a conversation-piece in which he introduced the portraits of the Duke of York and several English gentlemen then on their travels. The picture was afterwards exhibited at the rooms in Spring Gardens in 1763, at which time Brompton returned to England, and for some years practised portrait painting. Extravagant living brought him to the King's Bench, but he was rescued by the Empress of Russia, who requested that he go to St. Petersburg, where he was appointed portrait painter to the Empress, and met with much acclaim and portrait commissions. Richard Brompton died in St Petersburg, Russia, in 1782 and today his work is quite rare. We are very grateful to Hugh Belsey for his attribution to Richard Brompton. One bump to the right-hand side and a rub mark lower centre.
