Ignatius Sancho and Visual Culture

Grant, Charlotte (2024) Ignatius Sancho and Visual Culture. In: The Cambridge Companion to Ignatius Sancho. Cambridge University Press, Cambridge. (In Press)

Abstract

This chapter looks at the representation of Ignatius Sancho in relation to the visual culture. It examines Sancho's use of visual language and the language of conoisseurship in his letters, placing that alongside an analysis of the Gainsborough painting of 1768 to argue that Sancho emerges as an agent as well as a subject in London's visual culture.
