Description |
English: Oil painting on canvas (grisaille [camaieu brun]; arched top), The Allegorical Tomb of John Somers, Lord Chancellor Somers (1651-1716), possibly Giovanni Battista Piazzetta (Venice 1682 - Venice 1754), previously attributed to Domenico Maria Fratta (1696-1763). In the foreground lie the robe, mace, woolsack and purse of the Lord Chancellor of England, and the sword of the Sergeant-at-Arms; they allude to Somers's Lord Chancellorship (1697 - 1700) under William III. The tomb is surmounted by allegorical figures of Justice and Peace. In the centre of the composition a bishop is borne towards the tomb surrounded by a group of eccelsiastics - the Seven Bishops. |
