      Three quarter length portrait of James Wandesford Butler, 1st Marquess of Ormonde and 19th Earl of Ormonde (1774-1838) wearing the star and ribbon of the Order of St. Patrick Oil on canvas A Painter of portraits and genre scenes Richard Rothwell was born in Athlone. He entered the Dublin Society's school aged 14 where he was awarded a silver medal in 1820. He exhibited at the Royal Hibernian Academy between 1826 and 1829 having been elected an Associate of the RHA in 1823 and admission to full membership the following year. In 1829 he travelled to London and entered the studio of Sir Thomas Lawrence PRA (1769-1830). Laurence was the leading portrait painter of the age and upon his death, Rothwell was seen as his successor. Instead, 1831 he left for Italy to study the works of the Italian Masters remaining there until 1834.Upon his return to London he concentrated on genre scenes and exhibited these works at the Royal Academy. By 1847 he was back in Ireland and living in Rathfarnham. In 1854 he travelled to America but did not remain there long, returning to work in England. In 1862 he visited Paris, Brussels and Rome, where he exhibited his works with great success. He died in Rome in 1868 and is buried there in a grave beside the English Romantic poet John Keats. Throughout his life Richard Rothwell exhibited regularly at both the RA and at the RHA. Sir Edwin Landseer (1802-1873) commented to a friend 'An artist has come from Dublin who paints flesh as well as the Old Masters'.

      Richard Rothwell RHA (1800-1868) Roman Girl with Beaded Necklace Oil on canvas, 57 x 47cm (22½ x 18½'') Signed and inscribed 'Roma' Rothwell was the eldest of seven children to James Rothwell and his wife Elizabeth Holmes. Born in Athlone in 1800, he commenced his art studies in the Dublin Society's School in December 1814, and spent the next five years there, winning a silver medal for oil studies from the antique. When the Royal Hibernian Academy was founded in 1823 he was made an associate, and the next year a member. He sent portraits to the RHA between 1826 and 1829, when he left for London, as did so many of his countrymen, to find fame and fortune. In London, he worked in the studio of Sir Thomas Lawrence, and upon Lawrence's death in 1830, Rothwell was entrusted with the completion of Lawrence's unfinished portraits. He sent portraits of British nobility to the Royal Academy and won many commissions as a result. Rothwell travelled to Italy in 1831 to study the works of the Old Masters and stayed there for three years. Upon his return, however, he found difficulty in regaining his former esteemed status, as others had replaced him as a favoured portrait painter. He was said to be a man of a difficult disposition and quick to take offence, which often brought him into conflict with his fellow artists. From 1830 to 1863, Rothwell exhibited at the Royal Society of British Artists. He married Rosa Marshall, daughter of a Belfast physician, and subject of this painting, in 1842, and had several children. In 1846 he returned from Dublin and in 1847, was re-elected RHA. From 1849-54 he spent further time in London, and then lived in Leamington, before spending his last years in Paris and Rome, where he died in 1868.
