Francis Dodd Art
British, 1874-1949
Printmaker and pinter Francis Edgar Dodd was the born in Holyhead, Wales, on Novemeber 29, 1874. His formal art training began at the Glasgow School of Art under Fra Newbery and Archibald Kay, and in 1893 he was awarded the Haldane Scholarship to travel and study throughout Europe, going to France, Italy, and Spain. He became friends with fellow student Muirhead Bone, who later became his brother-in-law. In 1895 Dodd moved to Manchester and then finally settled in Blackheath, London, where he set up his studio.
With the onset of World War I Dodd was sent to the Western Front as a war artist for the War Propaganda Bureau (WPB), creating thirty portraits of military officials. This aided in his professional reputation after the war ended and he found success as a portraitist, in addition to his work in printmaking. In 1929 he was appointed a trustee of the Tate Gallery, and in 1927 he was elected an Associate Member of the Royal Academy, earning Full Member status in 1935.
Dodd continued to live in Blackheath until his death by suicide in 1949.

Portrait of Jeannie Netter, wearing a Burgundy dress
By Fedor Encke
Located in West Sussex, GB
Fedor Encke (1851-1926) – German
Full length Portrait of Jeannie Netter, standing in an interior, wearing a Burgundy Velvet Dress holding a Pink Rose
Oil on canvas :85 ¾ x 50 ¼ in. Frame :103 x 67 ¼ in. Signed & inscribed ‘New York’. Circa 1910
Jeannie Netter was an American born musician and song-writer but was mostly merited for her sculpture having been taught by the Russian artist Bernstamm.
Fedor Encke was born in Berlin, Germany in 1851. Younger brother of Erdmann Encke who was a sculptor, Encke was the illegitimate grandson of King Frederick Wilhelm II of Prussia and Mistress Wilhelmine Encke, Countess of Lichtenau.
Fedor studied under Karl Gussow in Berlin and then went on to study in Rome and Paris.
Although he set up a studio in Berlin during the 1880’s, he seems to have travelled regularly between Paris and New York painting many American Society sitters, including President Theodore Roosevelt.
Encke’s portrait of Roosevelt dressed in Rough Rider uniform, originally hung in the dining room of the White House and is now at the Presidents place of birth, Segamore Hill, New York. This portrait was also published as the frontispiece of ‘The Rough Riders’ by C. Scribners&Sons, 1899.
Encke was in Paris in 1902 and painted the two banking giants, John H. Harjes and J.P. Morgan both having their portraits painted at the same time.
To try and finish Morgan’s painting Encke hired a young photographer named Edward Steichen to take Morgan’s picture as a kind of aid memoir to minimize the sitting time. This photograph and the painting that resulted from it caused a considerable stir because of the uncompromising pose of Morgan. The portrait became synonymous with the new capitalism.
Encke seems to have been very well connected socially and painted for many members of the European nobility as a result. Encke died in 1926.
