About Artwork: (About 1770-2) "Born in 1747, Thomas Coltman inherited Hagnaby Priory, near East Kirkby in Lincolnshire, in 1768. He and his wife Mary Barlow are portrayed here probably a year or so after their marriage in October 1769. The couple can also be seen in Wright’s great painting An Experiment on a Bird in the Air Pump (also in the National Gallery), exhibited in 1768. The informality of the portrait suggests that Wright and the Coltmans were on friendly terms. Coltman rented a house in Derby from Wright and owned two other paintings by him. Both Mr and Mrs Coltman look relaxed and natural, about to set out on a morning ride. The landscape background is studied from nature – Wright painted his first pure landscape at about the same time. A groom leads Coltman’s bay horse from stables behind the house. This is Gate Burton Hall, which Coltman rented after his marriage while continuing to rent the house in Derby from Wright." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
