EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Colonel William Forward, M. P. , in all his regal glory. Painted by the talented Irish artist Charles Jervas, this oil on canvas masterpiece captures the essence of a distinguished statesman and military figure. Colonel Forward stands tall and proud, his hands confidently placed on his hips. Dressed in a vibrant red coat and waistcoat with a crisp white stock, he exudes power and authority. The backdrop of a stone archway adds an air of grandeur to the composition, with a picturesque landscape stretching beyond. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke - from Forward's meticulously styled hair to the intricate folds of his jacket. This portrait not only immortalizes an influential historical figure but also serves as a testament to Jervas' artistic prowess. Colonel William Forward was not just any politician; he held significant political influence as an esteemed member of parliament during his time. As father to Alice, wife of Ralph Howard who later became 1st Viscount Wicklow, Colonel Forward's lineage is intertwined with British aristocracy. This print allows us to appreciate both the historical significance and artistic brilliance captured within this painting. It invites us into another era, where powerful figures like Colonel Forward shaped history while simultaneously leaving their mark on the world through artistry and style.
