1867
South Kensington Museum presented National Portraits in London in 1867. The documented selection includes paintings, retaining the particular surviving objects and their historical catalogue references. Documented examples include Thomas Gainsborough’s The Hon. Mrs. Thomas Graham (c. 1775/1777; oil on canvas) and Gainsborough Dupont’s Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire (c. 1787/1796; oil on canvas). The reconstructed checklist is partial, and exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
