Description

An 19th-century engraving of Lord George Cavendish Bentinck (1802–1848) , a prominent British politician and racehorse owner, best known for his involvement in mid-19th century parliamentary reform and the turf. This engraving is after a painting by Samuel Lane , a well-known English portraitist of the era, and was engraved by Samuel W. Reynolds , one of Britain’s most accomplished mezzotint engravers. This elegant portrait shows Bentinck in formal attire, posed with a commanding presence. It reflects the dignified, academic style typical of mid-Victorian portraiture. The print is unframed and shows some signs of age and wear, particularly around the edges. It measures approximately 52 cm in height by 41.5 cm in width (image area may be slightly smaller). Ideal for collectors of historical portraiture, British aristocracy, or antique engravings. Details: Subject: Lord George Cavendish Bentinck (1802–1848) After Artist: Samuel Lane Engraver: Samuel W.
