EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of George Green, a prominent shipbuilder of the 19th century. Painted around 1840 by Samuel Laurence, the three-quarter-length seated depiction showcases Green's distinguished presence and accomplishments in the maritime industry.
Born in 1767 to a brewer, Green began his career as an apprentice at John Perry's Blackwall shipbuilding yard. Through hard work and dedication, he quickly ascended the ranks and eventually became a partner in the yard after marrying Perry's daughter in 1796.
Green's legacy extended beyond shipbuilding as he laid the foundation for his family's successful shipowning business. His ventures included trade routes to India and Australia, as well as involvement in the whaling industry.
In this painting, Green exudes confidence and authority befitting his stature as an esteemed engineer and businessman. The attention to detail in his attire reflects the fashion sensibilities of the era while also emphasizing his status within society.
As we gaze upon this portrait, we are reminded of George Green's lasting impact on maritime history and his enduring legacy as a pioneer in both shipbuilding and trade. This artwork serves as a timeless tribute to a man whose contributions continue to resonate today.
