Gainsborough: The Fashion of Portraiture examines Thomas Gainsborough’s portrait practice in relation to the fashions, materials, and social forces of eighteenth-century Britain. Bringing together portraits from across his career, the exhibition considers how clothing, pose, scale, and painterly technique shaped meaning and status. Technical studies further illuminate Gainsborough’s process and its connections to the broader fashion economy of the period.
