简介

本书探讨了英国画家托马斯·庚斯博罗（Thomas Gainsborough, 1727–1788）艺术中肖像画与时尚的丰富交织。作为其时代最炙手可热的社会肖像画家之一，庚斯博罗创作了数百幅肖像画，成为新兴英国画派的领袖之一。与同时代的社会肖像画家约翰·辛格·萨金特（John Singer Sargent）地位相当，庚斯博罗的肖像画深入参与了当时的社会动态。书中详细审视了庚斯博罗时代人们对时尚的理解方式、艺术家如何有时会重访一幅肖像以更新其风格，以及作品创作数百年后，画中人物与衣着的记录如何被解读。本书是2026年在弗里克收藏馆举办的同名展览图录，为展览中的二十五件作品提供了详细条目，并探讨了庚斯博罗及其模特如何选择他们被绘入画中的服饰。

This publication explores the rich intersections of portraiture and fashion in the art of the English painter Thomas Gainsborough (1727–1788), one of the most sought-after society portraitists of his age and a continued inspiration today. Gainsborough, whose importance was akin to that of later society artist John Singer Sargent, made hundreds of portraits, becoming one of the leaders of the fledging British School of artists. Very much a part of the social dynamic of the time, portraiture is described as a "means by which artists and their subjects could reinforce, resist, or break rules of social order". The engrossing text examines how fashion was understood, often in complex ways, in Gainsborough's time; how the artist would sometimes revisit a portrait to update a style; and how the documentation of both sitter and garment can be deciphered centuries after the creation of a work. Entries are provided on each of the twenty-five works in the exhibition that the catalogue accompanies. The book explores how and why Gainsborough and his sitters chose the trappings in which they would be immortalized in paint
