Note: Reference: Prown, Jules David. John Singleton Copley: In England 1774-1815. Cambridge, Mass: Harvard Univ. Press, 1966. ill. fig. 591, pg.286n. Fauconberg appears in the Death of Chatham, pg. 299n., "The site of Copley's house, now occupied by the Caxton Publishing Company, was directly across the street from the still-standing residence of Earl Fauconberg, whose portrait Copley painted.", pg. 349n.
A stipple engraving and etching by Anthony Fogg was made after this portrait. (see: https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/P_1852-1009-596)
Exhibited: Cambridge, Massachusetts, Harvard College, 1934-5; M.S. Rau, New Orleans, Louisiana (label verso)
Christies's essay states "Henry Belasyse (1743-1802), son of Sir Thomas and Catherine Betham Belasyse, succeeded his father in 1774 as the 2nd Earl Fauconberg of Newborough, York. Copley depicts him in the red coat of the North Riding Militia, with silver epaulets. A curtain behind him is drawn to reveal a distant landscape, and the family coat of arms is shown in the upper left corner of the canvas.
Fauconberg was Member of Parliament for Peterborough (1768-74), a Lord of the Bedchamber (1777-1802), Lord Lieutenant of the North Riding of Yorkshire from 1777 until his death, and Colonel of a 'Regiment of Foot' called 'Fauconberg's' in 1779. He married twice: to Charlotte Lamb (d.1790), daughter of Sir Matthew Lamb, 1st Bt, and sister of Peniston, 1st Viscount Melbourne, in 1776, and then to Jane Cheshire, of Bennington, Hertfordshire, in 1791, a year after his first wife's death. He died in 1802 of a 'sudden apoplexy' and the earldom became extinct.
In a letter to her daughter Mrs Greene, dated 18 March 1802, Copley's wife commented that 'We have lost our old neighbour Lord Fauconberg - his death was awfully sudden, he went out to walk and was brought back in a hearse dead', (recorded on a label on the reverse of the picture). Copley and Lord Fauconberg both lived in George Street, Leicester Square, at the time that the portrait was painted. The portrait was probably painted in the early 1790s and was engraved by A. Fogg in 1794."

Signed and titled verso. Biography from the Archives of askART: Born in New York City, Paul Berlin was a semi-abstract painter who achieved early success as a landscape, portrait, and mural painter in New York. His early art education was at the National Academy of Design, and he also studied art in England. In the 1920s, 30s and 40s, he exhibited and lectured widely and was well known nationally. Inspired by a 1913 visit to the Southwest, he became an early member of the Santa Fe school of western painting and did Indian portraits and landscapes including the Grand Canyon. In the 1912 Armory Show exhibition, he was one of the youngest members in the exhibition and the only painter who had visited the Southwest. However, his abstract, expressionistic style was viewed suspiciously by other painters in the West. Burlin continued to visit the Southwest, and in 1917 married Natalie Curtis, a woman from New York who had studied in Europe and who subsequently lived in New Mexico and Arizona and devoted herself to preserving the culture, language and traditions of Native Americans. She was especially focused on the songs and chants of the Hopi Indians. Curtis and Burlin lived in Santa Fe, but in 1921, Curtis, age 46, was killed in Paris by an automobile when she and her husband were in Paris attending an International Congress on the History of Art. Burlin taught at the Art Students League summer school in Woodstock, New York after it was re-established, following World War II, in 1947. He was a member of the American Congress of Artists and was active in the Provincetown Art Colony. He taught at the Colorado Springs Fine Art Center, the University of Wyoming, and Washington University in St. Louis. A fellow of the MacDowell Colony, in Peterborough, New Hampshire, Burlin was represented in an exhibition in 1997, "Community of Creativity: A Century of MacDowell Colony Artists," that traveled from the National Academy of Design, New York City, to the Wichita Art Museum, Kansas. In 1962, the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York City, held a retrospective exhibition of Burlin's work. Collections include the Museum of Modern Art, New York City; Whitney Museum of American Art; Provincetown Art Association and Museum, Massachusetts; and the Museum of New Mexico, Santa Fe. oil on canvas Dimensions: 10"H x 13 3/4"W, 11"H x 14 1/2"W (frame)
