Clara Klinghoffer
Portrait of Stanley Bate, 20th Century Musician

About the Item

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. Bate is seen in a natural pose, cigarette in hand while he sits at his piano. The delicate brushstrokes that make up the subject and background are typical of Klinghoffer's style and demonstrate her noted sensitivity and skill as a portraitist.
