George Romney (1734-1802) - Oil painting - Three quarters length portrait of Stratford Canning (1786-1880) wearing a blue coat and yellow waistcoat, seated in an armchair, relined canvas 50ins x 40ins, in gilt bead and acanthus leaf pattern frame £12000-15000
Provenance: Frant Court Sale, 29th October 1908. The portrait is mentioned in Roberts' annotated catalogue - T.H. Ward and W. Roberts - "Romney - Essay and Catalogue Raisonne", published in New York 1904.
Provenance: Sir Philip and Lady Haldin, formerly of Lympne Place, Lympne, Hythe, Kent and thence by family descent
Note: George Romney also painted a portrait of Mrs Stratford Canning and Child, which is now with the National Trust for Scotland at Fyvie Castle. The latter painting had also been at Frant Court but was sold privately by the family to Agnews prior to the sale.
Stratford Canning subsequently became 1st Viscount Stratford de Redcliffe K.G., G.C.B.,P.C. and was a British Diplomat and Politician, best known as long time British Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire. A cousin of the Foreign Secretary and Prime Minister, George Canning, he was the Envoy Extraordinary and Minister-Plenipotentiary to the United States between 1820 and 1824 and held his first appointment as Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire between 1825 and 1828. He intermittently represented several constituencies in Parliament between 1828 and 1842. In 1841 he was one again appointed Ambassador to the Ottoman Empire, a position which he held for the next seventeen years. Canning came to be seen as one of the leading figures in Constantinople as British influence over the area increased and the Turks became viewed increasingly as British clients. Nevertheless despite his illustrious diplomatic career, Canning's hopes of high political office were frequently dashed.
