Richard Cosway (bap.1742-d.1821), artist and collector, engraved after a self-portrait in Van Dyck dress. The most important and fashionable portrait miniaturist and draughtsman of the late eighteenth century, Cosway's delicate style and flattering portrayals epitomized Regency society. He was the principle recorder of the prince of Waless' image from 1780 to 1808, and exerted great influence on the prince's taste and collecting during that period. Cosway was also a significant connoisseur and collector in his own right, in which capacity he was admired and respected by contemporaries such as William Beckford, Sir Thomas Lawrence, and William Hazlitt.
