EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Willam Ponsonby, Viscount Duncannon and later 2nd Earl of Bessborough. The portrait beautifully captures his noble presence and reveals a man of great importance in the 18th century. William Ponsonby, born in 1704 and passing away in 1793, was not only an influential aristocrat but also a close friend and traveling companion to the renowned artist Jean Etienne Liotard. This particular artwork is a testament to their friendship as it exudes an air of elegance reminiscent of ancient Roman cameos. The profile bust depicted in this print truly brings out the regal features of Lord Duncannon. His strong jawline, refined nose, and piercing gaze are all meticulously captured by Liotard's skilled hand. The use of pastels on parchment adds depth and texture to the piece, giving it a timeless quality that resonates with viewers even today. As part of the Liszt Collection, this photograph serves as a window into history - allowing us to glimpse into the life and persona of one of England's notable figures from centuries ago.
