About the Item
Oil on canvas
Image size: 10 x 30 1/4 inches (25.5 x 77 cm)
Original gilt Watts frame
This is a head and shoulders portrait of William Ewart Gladstone painted after a photograph taken by the London studio Elliott & Fry in March 1879. Elliot & Fry was a photography studio founded in 1863 by Joseph John Elliot and Clarence Edmund Fry. For a century the firm's core business was taking and publishing photographs of the Victorian public and social, artistic, scientific and political luminaries.
The photography session with Gladstone was shortly after his first stint as British Prime Minister and just before his second, with him being elected once again in the 1880 general election. The original photograph is now part of the National Portrait Gallery collection. This photograph was then lithographed for 'The Modern Portrait Gallery', published by Cassell and Company, London 1885.
A mark on the back of the canvas from the stretcher and panel suppliers Reeves & Sons dates this work between 1879 (after the photograph was taken) and 1886.

- Portrait of Stanley Bate, 20th Century MusicianLocated in London, GBOil on canvas Image size: 24 x 29 inches (61 x 73.5 cm) Contemporary style gilt frame Provenance From the estate of the artist, Clara Klinghoffer This portrait is by an artist who propelled rapidly into the limelight after her first solo exhibition in 1920, at the age of 19, with the Daily Graphic naming her as the 'Girl Who Draws Like Raphael'. Yet today Clara Klinghoffer's name is little know. Klinghoffer's early success resulted in numerous portrait commissions, including this one of the English composer Stanley Bate. The bold use of colour and naive execution of this portrait clearly reveals the modernist influence of fellow Jewish artists such as Bernard Meninsky, Jacob Kramer and Mark Gertler...Category
