One of the artist’s most sensational portraits, Sir John Lavery’s stunning painting of Lady Evelyn Farquhar addresses the question of art and fashion with consummate success. By deliberately simplifying the staging and paring back any distracting clutter, Lavery focuses on the radiant presence of the sitter, set against a neutral backdrop with only a giltwood bergère and side table with white flowers for adornment. Confidently engaging the viewer and holding a pale blue sunshade, Lady Evelyn strikes a note that is at once classic and modern. The portrait was commissioned by the sitter’s husband, Captain Francis Douglas Farquhar, a year after their marriage and following the birth of their daughter.
