Philip Alexius de László, født Fülöp Laub den 30. april 1869 i Budapest, Ungarn, steg fra ydmyge kår til at blive en berømt portrætmaler for det europæiske kongehus og aristokratiet. Hans forældre, Adolf og Johanna Laub, var henholdsvis skrædder og syerske af jødisk oprindelse. Han begyndte sin karriere som lærling hos en fotograf, mens han sideløbende forfulgte sine kunstneriske studier. Han blev optaget på den nationale kunstakademi i Budapest, hvor han studerede under Bertalan Székely og Károly Lotz. Senere studier i München og Paris udvidede hans kunstneriske horisonter betydeligt.
De Lászlós tidlige værker udviste et skarpt øje for detaljen og en spirende mestring af realismen. Hans inspirationskilder omfattede de akademiske traditioner, han lærte på akademiet, samt de herskende tendenser inden for portrætkunst i slutningen af det 19. og begyndelsen af det 20. århundrede. Han udmærkede sig hurtigt ved sin evne til ikke blot at indfange det fysiske lighedstræk, men også personligheden og den sociale status hos sine modeller. Et vendepunkt indtraf i 1900, da hans portræt af Pave Leo XIII sikrede ham en Grand Gold Medal ved Verdensudstillingen i Paris, hvilket cementerede hans internationale ry.
Efter sin succes i Paris flyttede de László til Wien i 1903 og slog sig derefter ned i London i 1907, hvor han blev boende resten af sit liv. Han blev en yderst eftertragtet portrætmaler blandt den europæiske elite. Hans klientel omfattede monarker, adelige, industriherrer, videnskabsfolk og fremtrædende skikkelser fra mange forskellige felter.
I 1900 blev de László gift med Lucy Madeleine Guinness, et medlem af den prominente bankfamilie. De fik seks børn og sytten børnebørn. Han konverterede til anglikanismen i forbindelse med sit ægteskab efter en tidligere interesse for katolicismen. På trods af sit britiske statsborgerskab og sit etablerede liv i England, oplevede han internering under Første Verdenskrig (1917-1918) på grund af mistanke omkring sine østrigske forbindelser – en periode præget af betydelig modgang.
De Lászlós stil er kendetegnet ved sin realisme, minutiøse detaljerigdom og en levende farvepalette. Han var dygtig til at indfange teksturerne i stoffer, smykker og hudtoner. Hans portrætter formidler ofte en følelse af elegance, sofistikering og social status. Selvom han primært er kendt for sin portrætkunst, skabte han også landskaber og genrebilleder.
Philip de Lászlós værker giver værdifuld indsigt i det europæiske overklasselivs liv og udseende i slutningen af det 19. og begyndelsen af det 20. århundrede. Hans portrætter fungerer som historiske dokumenter, der indfanger en specifik æra og dens sociale dynamik. Selvom han tidvis er blevet kritiseret for primært at være en portrætmaler af det fine selskab, er hans tekniske kunnen og evne til at indfange karakter ubestridelig. Hans samlede værk består af næsten 4.000 værker, herunder tegninger, og et katalog raisonné er i øjeblikket under udarbejdelse. Han døde den 22. november 1937 i London og efterlod sig en varig arv som en af sin tids fremmeste portrætmalere.
