The Duke of Wellington
Artist: Francisco De Goya (Spanish, 1746 - 1828)
Original Dimensions: 25 3/8" x 20 5/8"
Location: National Gallery of Art, London
About Artwork: (1812-14) "This portrait of Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, was painted after he had defeated the French forces of Napoleon and entered Madrid victorious in August 1812. Wellington sat for Goya shortly after his arrival in Madrid, and the artist produced a large painting of the Duke on horseback (Apsley House, London), a drawing (British Museum, London) and our painting on panel. Although this portrait was probably painted directly from life, Goya later altered Wellington’s pose and made significant changes to the composition as the Duke was awarded the different medals and military orders he wears here. Wellington was a short man, and Goya paints him in an upright pose with his head held high, as if wishing to appear taller. The composition’s simplicity focuses our attention on Wellington’s face. This is not the look of a triumphant man: his face is gaunt and exhausted from battle, contrasting with the bright crimson military uniform he wears." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
