Portraits were presumably first done in order to produce a likeness of the famous or renowned person, so that the public could see what they looked like.
This portrait of the duchess of cambs makes her look old and haggard before she's even sprogged it up a bit.
Why oh why oh why do we not just make do with photographs these days? :smile:

Or, in the style of my new rapping image (see "main man" thread"):
Dat duchess looking old
Face dat you want to scold
For bein' privileged
When we haff ta live in our shed*
Coz we can't afford da rent
Or even buy a tent
She have a picture painted
My love for her is tainted
Me tell dis to her mum
After I ogle Pippa's bum.

I could have taken a cracking pic of her with me instarmatic, if shes asked
Would have been much better than that one

It really is rather horrid!

Eyes look cold and do not engage the viewer at all.
Nose has no depth and seems to be painted from an out of focus photograph.
Overall the blue tones are not balanced with any warmth so it has a rather chilling, haunting look to it.
The facial expression should either be neutral or clear. This is neither, there is tension around the mouth that does not match the expression in the eyes. Perhaps it is that look blokes get when we know something is wrong but we don't know what it is.

It looks really tacky, like one of those nasty portraits on black velvet that chavs have in their houses. Ghastly.

The artist has missed the young angularity of her rather lovely bone structure.

If anyone is skilled in Photoshop, they could make her face green for the full period look....
