Description
Impressive Portrait Painting Attributed to Captain Edmund Butterworth 3rd Royal Lancashire Militia Painted by E Greenwood (1808-74) in 1851, the oil on canvas portrait shows Butterworth in full military dress uniform with high collar, single winged epaulette, white cross belt with regimental cross belt plate to the centre and regimental pattern coatee buttons. Painting shows the subject as a young man. Housed in a gilt decorative frame. No visible signature, but not been inspected outside of the frame. Details of the sitter and the artist are inked to the reverse of the canvas. The canvas measures 64 x 76cms, frame 84 x 98cms. Painting shows evidence of conservation and has a receipt to confirm this. We are unsure of the age of this painting, we advise all interested parties to arrange personal viewing to satisfy themselves as to the age and condition. Due to size the item is sold as seen. We are not able to offer in house post and packing on this lot, specialist shipping required or personal collection.
At the time of going to press, we have only been able to find one record of Edmund Butterworth’s service and that is his appointment as a Captain in the 3rd Royal Lancashire Militia. It would appear that he did not serve in any other regiments and was not involved in any overseas service. More detailed research required. See the proceeding lot for a portrait of his brother Lieutenant Henry Butterworth 32nd Regiment of Foot.
