The artwork titled “The Gower Family. The Children of Granville, 2nd Earl Gower”, created by the artist George Romney in 1777, belongs to the Rococo art movement and represents the portrait genre.
The painting depicts four children and a woman engaged in a playful dance under the open sky, in front of a stone monument. The children, dressed in colorful period attire, hold hands forming a circle, while the woman to their right, clad in a flowing ivory gown with a reddish sash, raises a tambourine. The background reveals a serene, lush landscape with trees, enhancing the overall charming and light-hearted ambiance characteristic of the Rococo style. The tender interaction among the figures conveys an air of familial warmth and carefree joy.
