About the Item
Pen and ink, ink wash and pencil on paper, signed and dated (lower right), 38cm x 29cm (65cm x 55cm framed).
This penetrating and wonderfully executed self-portrait, is all the more surprising as very little is known about the career and life of the artist. Showing such technical skill and creative ability at such an early age, does not appear to have translated into success in later life. The work probably descended in the family of the artist. It came with a group of other studies by the artist from throughout his career, including a second early self-portrait from 1919 and portrait of a young woman.

Stonehouse had an extraordinary life. As a young art student studying fashion illustration, he joined the Royal Artillery at the beginning of WWII but soon became a part of the Special Operations Executive (SOE). He was sent to France as a radio operator but three and a half months later was caught by the Gestapo, tortured, given a death sentence and then selected for slave labour. He spent the subsequent war years in three French prisons and five concentration and labour camps, including Dachau. He still managed to continue to draw in some of the camps. Following the war, Stonehouse went to the US and continued his career as a fashion artist painting for magazines like Vogue, Harper's Bazaar and Elizabeth Arden. He was also an accomplished portraitist. His work is celebrated in Brian Stonehouse...
