Alphonse Legros Etching " Portrait of Sir Edward John Poynter"
About the Item
Original Victorian etching in period frame by Alphonse Legros of the artist Edward J Poynter.. Legros and Poynter were good friends with each other and James Mcneil Whistler was a mutual friend.
The Metropolitan Museum New York holds a comparable example
Legros' portrait of fellow artist Poynter was published in the art periodical "The Portfolio," in January 1877. The publication and its editor, Philip Gilbert Hamerton (1834–1894), actively promoted printmaking, especially etching. Poynter was the first Slade Professor of Fine Art at University College London from 1871 to 1875. Legros succeeded him as Slade Professor on his direct recommendation and became one of the art school's most influential instructors, teaching there for over fifteen years. Poynter himself later had a number of administrative roles including president of the Royal Academy of Arts and director of the National Gallery, London.
