Vilken härlig sida! Konst är verkligen något av det mesta intressanta som finns!
Glädjande att se att fler är tokiga i konst och speciellt den äldre konsten. Porträtt och deras historia är otroligt fascinerande. Jättekul att du har gjort denna sidan!
:) Vänliga hälsningar Heidi

I am trying to locate where the portrait of the Sharp family is now. Whether its in private ownership or a gallery.

The National Gallery of Ireland have recently acquired a wonderful group portrait by Zoffany of George Fitzgerald and his sons George and Charles.
You can find it on the gallery website by looking up the alphabetical list of artists.
