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.
