EDITORS COMMENTS
This oil on canvas portrait, titled "Alderman W. G. Ward, 1878" showcases the esteemed figure of Alderman W. G. Ward in all his regal glory. Painted by Frederick Warsop around 1878, this masterpiece measures an impressive 112.1x87 cm and is housed at Nottingham City Museums and Galleries. Ward, a prominent figure in Nottingham's history, served as the Mayor of the city during two separate terms: from 1871-72 and again from 1877-78. This portrait captures him in his mayoral splendor, donning a chain and medallion that symbolize his civic duty and authority. The artist skillfully portrays Ward's distinguished features; his well-groomed beard adds to his aura of wisdom and experience. Clad in a ceremonial collar of esses with a cloak draped over one shoulder, Ward exudes power and prestige befitting his position. The painting beautifully captures the essence of a middle-aged dignitary fulfilling his duties with utmost dedication. The intricate details such as the livery collar adorned with gold accents further emphasize Ward's status within society. This remarkable artwork not only serves as a testament to Alderman W. G. Ward's significant contributions but also stands as an exquisite example of portraiture during this era. It immortalizes a man who played an instrumental role in shaping Nottingham's governance while showcasing Warsop's exceptional talent for capturing character through brushstrokes alone.
