Portrait of John Hoppner

About the Item

After Sir John Hoppner 1758 - 1810 Self Portrait Oil on canvas Image size: 18 1/2 x 21 1/2 inches (47 x 55 cm) Original gilt Carlotta frame This wonderful painting is after John Hoppner's own self-portrait that was painted in 1800. Hoppner chose to present himself in a lavish red high-necked coat with the collar of a white shirt being just visible underneath. He looks out at the viewer with a direct and focused gaze. Hoppner was considered a handsome man in his youth and was reputed to be a brilliant conversationalist. This self-portrait was painted when he was about forty-two and at the height of his powers. It exemplifies his interest in the rich colouring and sfumato of sixteenth-century Venetian art.

  • Portrait of Stanley Bate, 20th Century Musician
    Located in London, GB
    Oil 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...
