A Merry Company on the Banks of the Rímac River Lima School. A Merry Company on the Banks of the Rímac River, ca.1800. Oil on canvas, 26 x 35 1/2 in. (66 x 90.2 cm). This painting from colonial Peru depicts the grounds of a country estate populated by privileged, peninsular Spaniards (people born in Spain) and members of the Creole elite (people of Spanish descent born in the Americas). They are accompanied by the Indigenous and African servants who dress, serve, and entertain them, thereby making the aristocrats leisure time possible. The unidentified artist completed this work in Lima, which was the capital of the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru until that country gained its independence in the 1820s. While the white men wear suits fashionable at the time among cosmopolitan Europeans, their wealthy female counterparts dress in the characteristic native South American pollera ensemble, showing how the confluence of Indigenous and Spanish customs contributed to distinctive regional style

The Wedding of Stephen Beckingham and Mary Cox. Artist: William Hogarth (British, London 1697-1764 London). Dimensions: 50 1/2 x 40 1/2 in. (128.3 x 102.9 cm). Date: 1729.This wedding group is one of the artist's first essays in the fashionable genre of the conversation piece. Beckingham, a London lawyer, and his bride are flanked by members of their families. The marriage took place at St. Benet's but the setting is based on the church of St. Martin-in-the-Fields in Trafalgar Square. Although Hogarth was sought after for his ability to capture a likeness, the solemn event depicted here seems to have had limited appeal to him by comparison with his famous satirical subjects. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
