Sir John Bowring Portrait Print
Sir John Bowring NPG 1082
© National Portrait Gallery, London
by Pierre-Jean David D'Angers, cast by Louis Richard
As well as the accurate representation of facial features, D'Angers was particularly interested in recording the shape of the head and the form of the skull. In this example, the broad arch of Bowring's forehead is emphasised in high relief. The medallion was presented to the Gallery in 1897 by the Director, Sir Lionel Cust. He purchased it from the collector Frederick Parker Weber, who in turn obtained the cast from Richard's son-in-law.
