EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Henry Bathurst, Bishop of Norwich, in 1826. Painted by Thomas Kirkby, this oil on canvas print showcases the distinguished features and commanding presence of this prominent English churchman and influential Whig. Standing tall with his academic bands elegantly draped around his neck, Bishop Bathurst exudes an air of authority and wisdom. His imperious gaze pierces through the canvas, revealing a man who has dedicated his life to both religion and politics. The Georgian backdrop adds a touch of elegance to the portrait, emphasizing Bathurst's status as a clergyman during this era. The elderly bishop wears a traditional mortar board atop his head, symbolizing his scholarly pursuits and intellectual prowess. Kirkby's masterful brushstrokes beautifully capture every detail - from Bathurst's meticulously styled wig to the intricate folds in his robe. The three-quarter length composition allows us to appreciate not only the subject's physical appearance but also hints at his multifaceted personality as scholar and politician. Displayed here is more than just a painting; it is a testament to Bishop Henry Bathurst's significant contributions to society. As we admire this remarkable piece from New College Oxford's collection, we are reminded of the lasting impact that individuals like him have had on our history.
