There are picturesque harbours and grand country houses set in vast acreages. There are impressive landmarks from the past such as Tintagel Castle, St Michael’s Mount and more standing stones and Neolithic sites than you can shake a stick at. They exist happily alongside the present day futuristic domes of Eden, the stately grey bulk of Tate St Ives, old Mine chimneys (sensibly bestowed with World Heritage status) and the spoil heaps of the clay pits near St Austell. 35 BEST OF CORNWALL 2020 However there is more to Cornwall’s appeal than It was clear that luck landmarks.

  • De László and Sargent
    De László and Sargent Richard Ormond In the year 1907 Philip de László set up as a portrait painter in London and John Singer Sargent retired. Society’s favourite portrait painter, an American, was succeeded by an Hungarian in a seamless transfer of patronage from one to the other. The people Sargent had painted in the early 1900s de László would portray a decade or more later, and occasionally the other way about. Their sitters came from the highest ranks of the British establishment. Both artists sought employment in America, and de László enjoyed a privileged position as court painter to most of Europe’s royal families. Both were cosmopolitan, international in outlook, and masters of high style and painterly panache. They understood their role in giving fresh impetus to the grand tradition of formal portraiture by harnessing a modern sense of psychology and sensibility to the age-old claims of FIG. 1 rank and status. Portraits by Sargent and de László are marked by Philip Alexius de László 1869 - 1937 flowing brushwork and scintillating effects of light and colour that The Duchess of Portland 1912 bring their subjects vividly to life. At the same time their sitters are Oil on canvas, 127 x 101.5 cm Private Collection invested with the aura of wealth and glamour, power and prestige, through the devices of grand design and pictorial invention. “Ask me to paint your gates, your fences, your barns, which I should gladly do, but not the human face”, Sargent told Lady Radnor came to an abrupt end when his celebrated portrait of Mme Gautreau in 1907.1 After twenty years of unparallelled success, he was giving (Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York) caused outrage at the up as a portraitist in order to concentrate on his mural projects Salon exhibition of 1884.
