Перевести in portraiture sir thomas lawrence (1769-1830) continuing the manner of the 18th century introduced more realism. thomas lawrence, the last of the painters to begin his career in the reynolds tradition, was a favourite of the english nobility. his magnificent paintings were glorified portraits of statesmen , military leaders, and diplomats - always handsome , self-possessed and imperious , a romantic pathos ennobling them more . "lady raglan" is one of lawrence's earlier works, done when he was still greatly influenced by reynolds , but its easy manner and masterly brushwork are really wonderful. sometimes lawrence sacrificed realism to create a mild,idealized portrait. the artist is at his best as a society portraitist in his "portrait of count m.s. vorontsov " , a participant in the war of 1812 . lawrence's work was true to the traditions of the final period of a school of portrait painting. the tradition of realistic landscape was represented by john constable.
