Robert Woodburn
d. 1803
Robert Woodburn was a Neoclassicism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at National Gallery of Ireland.
Robert Woodburn painted Irish portraits in the 1700s. His 1793 oil *Portrait of Andrew Caldwell* shows a Waterford judge in dark coat and powdered wig. A quiet realist, he caught details like Caldwell’s quill and papers on a table. Born in Ireland and active before 1803, he left a small body of work that tells us about the men who shaped 18th-century Waterford life. Tap Caldwell’s portrait to see the judge’s gaze and the room he worked in.
