Joan Carlile
A self-portrait of Carlile and her family from a larger work, The Carlile Family with Sir Justinian Isham in Richmond Park[1]
Joan Carlile[n 1] was born as Joan Palmer, the daughter of William Palmer, an official in the Royal Parks[8] and his wife, Mary.[2]
Carlile copied the works of Italian masters and reproduced them in miniature.[8] She was also an accomplished painter in her own right.
In July 1626[4] she married Lodowick Carlell or Carlile, Gentleman of the Bows to Charles I and a poet and dramatist,[8] who, as keeper/deputy ranger at Richmond Park during the Commonwealth period, had accommodation at Petersham Lodge,[9] where they lived from 1637 to 1663.[10][n 2] The couple moved to Covent Garden in 1654[6] but returned to Petersham two years later[2] after the restoration of the monarchy, when Lodowick was given the post of "Keeper of the house or Lodge and the Walk at Petersham". They returned to London in 1665.[6]
Lodowick died in 1675 and was buried in the churchyard of Petersham Parish Church[6] (which was then in Surrey and is now in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames). Joan, who was then living in the parish of St Martin-in-the-Fields,[4] died in 1679, and was buried beside her husband on 27 February.[2][4]
They had three children, Penelope (who married John Fisher, a lawyer of the Middle Temple in 1657),[10] James (who was married to Ellen; they had two sons, James and Lodowick)[4] and Edmund.[10]
In 2016, the Tate acquired Carlile's Portrait of an Unknown Lady which she painted between 1650 and 1655.[12][13][14]
A painting from circa 1648[15] of Elizabeth Murray, Countess of Dysart with her husband and sister has been attributed to Carlile and is held by the National Trust. It is on display at Ham House.[15][16] Another painting of the Countess of Dysart, attributed to Carlile, is held by the Thirlestane Castle Trust.[17]
The Carlile Family with Sir Justinian Isham in Richmond Park is held at Lamport Hall in Lamport, Northamptonshire.[18] Also known as A Stag Hunt,[8]The Stag Hunt,[19] or Stag hunt in Richmond Park,[20] it was exhibited at the Tate Gallery in 1972.[8]
Her full-length portrait of a lady, believed be Lady Anne Wentworth, in a white dress and a purple mantle, is in a private collection.[3]
A miniature portrait, attributed to Carlile, described as A Lady, Wearing White Dress With Brooch At Her Corsage..., was auctioned by Sotheby's in London in 2005.[21]
According to historian Stephen Pasmore, "In 1760 in an essay on painting Bainbrigg Buckeridge wrongly referred to Mrs. Carlile's Christian name as Anne and later writers have continued the mistake."
