Gainsborough’s Family Album DAVID H. SOLKIN WITH ESSAYS BY ANN BERMINGHAM AND SUSAN SLOMAN

This book features over 50 portraits by Thomas Gainsborough (1727–88) – of himself, his wife, his daughters, other close relatives and his beloved dogs, Tristram and Fox. This ‘family album’ spans more than four decades, charting Gainsborough’s early life through to his successful latter years.

Alongside this story of a provincial 18th-century artist’s rise to fame and fortune runs a more private narrative, about the role of portraiture in the promotion of family values, at a time when these were assuming a recognisably modern form.
