Mientras tanto, en la vida de Peter Lely

La vida entera
  1. 1641–1680 · Lugar de trabajo

    London

  2. after 1660

    A large workshop and mezzotint prints

    Demand was high and Lely’s large workshop was prolific: after Lely painted a sitter’s head, his pupils would often complete the portrait in one of a series of numbered poses. Realising that the mezzotint could publicise his portraits, he encouraged Dutch mezzotinters to come to Britain to copy his work, laying the foundations of the English mezzotint tradition.

  3. 1679

    Knighted by Charles II

    Charles II knighted the painter (other accounts give 1680). Soon afterwards Lely died at his easel in Covent Garden while painting a portrait of the Duchess of Somerset; it is believed he likely died after a stroke.
