Attributed to Sir Francis Grant PRA (1803-1878) Portrait of Charlotte, Lady Malcolm (1789-1867), seated beside a desk, a dog at her feet Inscribed on a plaque attached to the frame, oil on canvas, 94cm by 63.5cm Charlotte Malcolm, the daughter of General Sir Alexander Campbell Bt, married Sir John Malcolm at Mysore in 1807 and although she had five children no direct descendants survive. Her portrait was said to have been painted when she was already a widow (Sir John Malcolm died in 1833). Corroborating, although circumstantial, evidence for this comes from the journal of her brother-in-law, Sir Charles Malcolm, who recorded on the 13th February 1840 "Lady Malcolm is sitting for Mr. Grant. I went to-day to see the picture, if she would but sit to him regularly, he would make a very fine picture. It is full length but a small size" (National Library of Scotland Acc12150/21 p53) Sir Francis Grant was a notable Scottish artist of the 19th century. He was an associate of the Royal Academy from 1842 and also served as President of the Royal Academy, elected in 1866, after Sir Edwin Landseer turned down the seat. It should also be noted that Sir Francis Grant was knighted. He was the brother of General Sir James Hope Grant. Sir Francis Grant was the son of a Scottish country gentleman, not of great means. By the age 26 he had squandered his patrimony and decided to earn his living as a painter. He had taken some lessons from John Ferneley, but was for the most part a self taught painter. He first exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1834. Sir Francis Grant was known to be a sporting and portrait painter. Melton Breakfast, The Melton Hunt and The Cottesmore Hunt are some of his well known sporting paintings. Grant painted more than 800 portraits between 1831 and his death in 1878. Scott, Macaulay, Disraeli, Palmerston, and Landseer were among his sitters. Later in life Grant suffered from a sense of inferiority to his eventual successor Lord Leighton. Grant did enjoy the Queen`s patronage, however, Queen Victoria regarded him to be an amateur country gentleman rather than an artist.
