EDITORS COMMENTS
John Manners, 9th Duke of Rutland, exudes timeless elegance and aristocratic charm in this oil painting. Created by the talented artist Oswald Hornby Joseph Birley in 1936, the portrait captures the essence of a distinguished nobleman. Seated with an air of imperiousness, the Duke is depicted in formal evening dress, wearing a white tie and a striking white flower buttonhole. His posture reflects his noble lineage and commanding presence. A wineglass filled with rich red wine sits on the table beside him, hinting at refined tastes and luxurious lifestyle. The attention to detail is exquisite; every brushstroke brings out the nuances of his features and attire. The artist's skillful use of light adds depth to this half-length portrait, illuminating John Manners' face as he gazes confidently into the distance. As one of England's prominent figures during the 1930s, John Manners personifies nobility and sophistication. His role as Marquis of Granby further solidifies his status within British society. This painting serves as a testament to his place among English aristocracy. Displayed against a backdrop of Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire – home to generations of Rutland Dukes – this artwork transports us back to an era defined by gracefulness and refinement. It encapsulates not only John Manners' individuality but also represents an entire epoch steeped in tradition. Bridgeman Images has preserved this masterpiece for all art enthusiasts to
