18th Century Military Portrait of Sir George Montgomery
SKU
WD3426840
Large 18th Century oil on canvas portrait of Sir George Montgomery, 2 Baronet of Magbiehill, Peebleshire.
MP for Peebleshire, the engraved brass plaque Capt George Montgomery age 21, 1789. He inherited the title of 2nd Baronet Montgomery on the death of his father Sir William Montgomery, in December of 1788, so this portrait is likely to have been commissioned then.
On the reverse a handwritten label states it was painted by an M McGuinness but no record has been found of this artist.
The painting has been restored and relined, set in a fine period giltwood frame.
