Portrait of the Artist 1821 Thomas Sully American The English-born Philadelphian Thomas Sully painted this self-portrait for his host in Baltimore, Maryland, the broker Henry Robinson. The artist is shown interrupted at his work, with the primary tool of his profession pointed at his sharply lit head. This paintbrush device is common in artists self-portraits, and Sully is thought to have adapted it from a similar work by Benjamin West, with whom he had studied in London. Although Sullys brushwork is unusually restrained here, its painterly quickness blends with the engaging spontaneity of the pose to create a sense of immediacy.. Portrait of the Artist 12701

Head of a Man Spanish (Castilian) Painter Spanish When purchased by the important collector Louisine Havemeyer (1855-1929), this portrait was praised by Edgar Degas (1834-1917) and Mary Cassatt (1844-1926) as a work by Diego Velázquez (1599-1660). Its broad, frank brushwork resonates with this artists early paintings. By the 1930s, however, this attribution was doubted and today the painting is generally thought to be by someone in Velázquezs circle or the workshop of the battle painter José Leonardo (1601-1652). Regardless, at some point in its history it appears to have been cut from a larger canvas in order to try to create an independent portrait.. Head of a Man.
