After Anthony van Dyck, 19th century
Thomas Howard, Earl of Arundel
Oil on panel

Unsigned, a handwritten page pasted on the back. 8 x 6 inches (20.5 x 15 cm), the frame 10 x 8 inches (25.5 x 20.5 cm). Ebonised ripple frame. Small losses along the edges of the panel, the frame worn.

Besides the face and the ruff, only two things catch the light. The gold pendant hangs between the fingers of one hand, a single raised touch of yellow and brown laid over the black of the cloak, and a folded sheet of paper rests in the other.

The sitter is seated and turned slightly toward us, with a short beard, a stiff white ruff and a black cloak over a dark doublet. A blue ribbon runs from his neck to the pendant. At the left a scarlet chair back shows against a plain brown ground, and his sleeve ends in a white lace cuff above the paper.

Note

Thomas Howard, Earl of Arundel, built one of the first great art collections in England, paintings, drawings and ancient marbles that his grandson later gave to the University of Oxford. Van Dyck painted him around 1620, at the very start of his own career, seated in a scarlet chair with the gold badge of Saint George in his hand, the emblem of the Knights of the Garter. Two centuries on, the image was still being copied. On the back of this small copy someone pasted a handwritten page, a passage signed Mrs Jameson that calls Arundel the first virtuoso of his time, followed by a note on the Arundel marbles. The page is still there, creased and browned, behind the panel.

What the grades mean

All grades are relative to the age of the painting. They describe the painting itself, the frame is described separately. Fine age craquelure is normal and never lowers a grade.

GoodThis painting

Stable. Signs of age or earlier restoration are visible on close inspection, such as small retouches or a slightly yellowed varnish. The overall appearance is intact.

Other grades

Very good

Stable. Only minor, old retouches or very small losses, not distracting at normal viewing distance. The canvas may have been relined or cleaned in the past.

Fair

Stable and ready to hang, but wear or earlier restoration is noticeable at normal viewing distance, such as visible retouching, a discoloured varnish or scattered small losses.

Needs conservation

Visible damage a conservator should treat, such as flaking, a tear, larger losses or heavy old repaint. Every issue is shown in the photographs.
