Title
Death portrait of Elizabeth Royall (1740–1747)
Description
English: "Elizabeth Royall (1740–1747) was born in Medford, Massachusetts, the daughter of the wealthy Loyalist merchant Isaac Royall (1719–1781) and his wife, Elizabeth McIntosh (1722–1770). An early posthumous portrait, it was undoubtedly painted as a memorial of the couple’s young daughter, lying on her death bed. Until 1989 the portrait was mounted on the obverse of the same stretcher holding the portrait of her younger sister, Mary McIntosh Royall. The artist, Joseph Badger, was born to a family of modest means in Cambridge, Massachusetts. He was a glazier, house and sign painter, and a self-taught portraitist. Badger’s career flourished in the 1740s and 1750s, but was eclipsed in the 1760s by the emergence of the eminently talented Boston artist John Singleton Copley. When Badger died his wife was required to sell their modest house to pay his debts." [1]
