Anglo-Flemish School, circa 1620Portrait of Sir Giles Alington of Horseheath (1572-1638) in a black embroidered coat with lace ruff and gold embroidered cap oil on panel 72 x 60.5cmProvenance: Presumably by descent in the family at Horseheath until an unknown date; Sale, Christie's, London, 23rd November 2004, lot 6, When acquired by the late Nigel Alington, Little Barford Manor House, BedfordshireFootnote: The sitter was the son of Sir Giles Alington (d. 1573) of Horseheath Hall, Cambridge, by his wife Margaret, daughter of Sir John Spencer of Althorp. His great-grandfather was High Sheriff of Cambridgeshire and Master of the Ordnance to King Henry VIII. The sitter himself became High Sheriff of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire in 1599. He married 1st, Dorothy Cecil (1577-1613) granddaughter of Elizabeth I's Lord High Treasurer, William Cecil, Lord Burghley, the most powerful man in England. Sir Giles inherited his great-grandfather's Cambridgeshire estate at Horseheath in 1586 and came of age in 1593.An attribution to Marcus Gheeraerts (c.1561-1635) could perhaps be considered on the basis of comparison with his signed portrait of 1628 of Richard Tomlins in the Bodleian Library, Oxford (see Oliver Millar in the Exhibition Catalogue, The Age of Charles I, Tate Gallery 1972, page 29, no.25). As Millar writes, “By this late period in his career, Gheeraerts had lost the patronage of the court and was probably finding his patrons principally among scholars and country gentlemen.” His “…comparatively two-dimensional presentation….seem old-fashioned, but it represents a style in which painters outside the court circle, in the City and in the provinces, worked until the 1640s: a style….in which an almost neo-Elizabethan spirit is kept alive.” Condition report: 96.5 x 86cm (framed)The painting is executed on wooden panel made from oak and formed from three boards in vertical alignment. The panel joins are evident on the front surface of the painting as two continues vertical cracks. The panel has been reinforced by an extensive cradle attached to the reverse. The panel has a slight vertical curvature and splits have formed running down from the top edge. The horizontal members of the cradle have seized and the cradle appears to be restraining the original panel, potentially causing the smaller splits. The paint layer is in a good, stable condition overall. There are areas of retouching along the panel joins. There are other areas of overpaint across the surface which are slightly matte but reasonably well-matched to the original. The varnish is clear, glossy and even.
