About the Item

Sir John Kiffin Williams O.B.E. R.A. 1918-2006, was a Welsh landscape painter. Kiffin Williams as he was known lived on Anglesey and was widely regarded as one of the greatest Welsh painters of the 20th Century. His work is widely collected and in constant demand not just in Wales but throughout the UK, his technique for his much loved landscapes was with a palette knife which is a difficult talent to master but they have a unique air of distinction and are somewhat mystical and gentle to the eye. This painting is a copy of his own self portrait which is held in the National Library of Wales which was painted in 1969, the date of the copy here is somewhat obscured by way of the artist being unknown. However this painting is clearly the hand of an accomplished artist who has captured the essence of Williams' work and is a rare portrait of the great painter. It is currently housed in a temporary frame and a new owner may prefer their own choice, however it is sufficient to display the painting here without the propensity to enhance.
