About the Item
An arresting portrait depicting a London Bus Conductor in full uniform. Weissbort beautifully captures the pensive expression of the driver's face and uses warm reds in the clothes and uniform to create a vibrant composition.
The gentleman's uniform places him as a mid-century bus conductor. The ‘N’ on his badge tells us that he would have been working the London bus routes around 1961 when this portrait was painted.
Signed and dated to the lower right. Beautifully presented in a gilt frame with laurel and berry strapwork. On board.

George Weissbort
George Weissbort was a Belgian–born British artist. He lived and painted in Wye Valley, England. The critic Brian Sewell, considering him an important exponent of an earlier style at a time not widely receptive to it, described him as having "painted the right pictures at the wrong time"

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...
