The Serjeant Painter was an honourable and lucrative position as court painter with the English monarch. It carried with it the prerogative of painting and gilding all of the King's residences, coaches, banners, etc. and it grossed over £1,000 in a good year by the 18th century. The work itself involved painting the palaces, coaches, royal barges, and all sorts of decorations for festivities, which often had to be designed as well. The actual involvement of the serjeant painters in this gradually declined. The post itself fell out of use in the 18th century, after a period when "fine art" painters were appointed, and expected to supervise rather than execute decorative painting, for a good salary.

  • Serjeant Painter est un titre honorifique anglais décerné par le souverain à un artiste peintre attaché à sa cour. Inauguré au début du XVIe siècle, ce titre tombe en désuétude à la fin du XVIIIe siècle. Le titre de Peintre principal en ordinaire (Principal Painter in Ordinary) continua lui d'être attribué. (fr)
