Richmond Barthé’s Seated Man in a Landscape

Previously misattributed, Richmond Barthé’s Seated Man in a Landscape goes on display at the National Trust’s Belton House after new research confirms both the artist and sitter. The sitter has been identified as Lucian Levers, who was employed as Barthé’s helper at Lolaus, the artist’s house and studio in St Ann Parish, Jamaica. Read about the research here.
