Thomas Gainsborough’s "Mall in St. James's Park" has recently undergone conservation treatment and is back on view on the fourth floor of #FrickMadison!nnBy the time Gainsborough painted this scene for King George III in the 1780s, the Mall had become a fashionable promenade. That is precisely what the painter shows here: Groups of women strolling in splendid dresses and hats—and accompanied by their dogs—size each other up under the shade of bending trees lining the Mall. Cows, visible through the fence at left, provided milk for dairy drinks sold at the park.
