FIELD, J. Born 1771, died 1841, at Molesey. Painted in black on glass, plaster, and card; nearly always pencilled with gold. He was for many years in partnership with Miers, when the names Miers & Field appear on the label. Afterwards, “J. Field, 11, Strand, late of the firm of Miers & Field,” is found on the backs of his fine portraits. Thus: “J. Field, Profilist to their Majesties, and H.R.H. the Princess Augusta, No. 2, Strand, London, two doors east from Northumberland House. Upwards of thirty years sole profile painter, and late of the firm of Miers & Field. Continues to execute his long approved likenesses, combining expression and character with accuracy of finish, so as to give the most pleasing resemblance, for frames, cases, frontispieces for library works, and even in minute size for bracelets, brooches, lockets. Time of sitting, three minutes. Mr. F. preserves all the original shades, by which he can at any time furnish copies, if required, without the necessity of a second sitting.

Field; also jewellery and seal engraving.” This label is on a portrait of himself by J. Field, in the possession of his great-grandson. VIII., IX., X., XXII. FINKENTSCHER, OTTO.
