William Larkin (painter)

Richard Sackville, 3rd Earl of Dorset by William Larkin, 1613, standing on a Lotto carpet.[1]

William Larkin (early 1580s – 1619) was an English painter active from 1609 until his death in 1619, known for his iconic portraits of members of the court of James I of England which capture in brilliant detail the opulent layering of textiles, embroidery, lace, and jewellery characteristic of fashion in the Jacobean era, as well as representing numerous fine examples of oriental carpets in Renaissance painting.[2]
