George Herbert Buckingham Holland
1930's English, Portrait in oil of a Bowler Hatted man, Photographer John Bean

1932

About the Item

George Herbert Buckingham Holland was born in Northampton, the son of a grocer. He studied at Leicester School of Art. He made his living painting portraits of Northampton dignitaries, but he also painted flowers, landscapes, town scenes and coastal scenes, mostly in oil. Portrait of the photographer John Bean Esq, dated 1932, This painting has a French canvas maker's stamp on the back, so I wonder if he was in Paris looking at the work of the French Impressionists such as Degas and bought the canvas and stretcher and then came back to England where he painted this outstanding portrait. One can almost feel the influence of Degas or Manet. Framed in its original frame.
