乔治·华盛顿

Gilbert Stuart American

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 755

斯图尔特在1793年3 月从伦敦回到美国，打算给乔治·华盛顿画一幅肖像画。这幅画是华盛顿朝向右边的十八幅半身肖像画之一，这组画也叫“沃恩组”。这幅画中有斯图尔特的第一幅华盛顿写生肖像的痕迹：在黑色颜料下有一件泛红的棕色外套，上面有黄色的纽扣；这表明斯图尔特在画第一幅沃恩肖像画的同时构思出了这幅画。斯图尔特的华盛顿肖像画既逼真又有标志性。此画中，艺术家巧妙地使用蓝灰色阴影突出肤色的立体感，使华盛顿的面部看起来好像大理石，传达出一种不朽的形象。
