Im Leben von George Romney
Das ganze Lebenc. 1775
Commissions from the Duke of Richmond and his circle
Charles Lennox, 3rd Duke of Richmond, and his circle of friends offer Romney commissions, which turn the tide of the artist’s fortunes permanently in his favour.
1775
Settles in Cavendish Square
On his return he takes a house in Cavendish Square, formerly owned by the noted portraitist Francis Cotes, but remains considerably in debt, both his own and that of his brother Peter, an artistic but dissolute man.
1775
Returns from Italy to London
After an absence of over two years he returns to London by way of Florence, Bologna, Venice, Parma and Turin.
1776–1777
Friendship with the writer William Hayley
In 1776–1777 Romney makes the acquaintance of William Hayley and strikes up a lasting friendship with the writer, painting portraits for him.
