EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Study of Jack Knewstub, 1905" by renowned artist William Orpen. The artwork, created using pencil on paper, measures 29.2x20.3 cm and is currently held in a private collection. The subject of this study is none other than Jack Knewstub himself, who was not only the brother-in-law of the artist but also played significant roles in the art world during his time. As manager of the Chelsea Art School established by Orpen and Augustus John, Knewstub unfortunately proved to be inefficient and a financial burden. However, his contributions did not end there; he also owned and operated the Chenil Gallery. This portrait captures him as a distinguished businessman with an air of authority surrounding him. Through this intimate drawing, Orpen skillfully portrays both Knewstub's physical features and his character traits. The attention to detail in every stroke brings out his strong personality while capturing subtle nuances that make this piece truly remarkable. Preserved within this print from Bridgeman Images, we are able to appreciate Orpen's artistic talent as well as gain insight into an important figure within London's art scene at that time.
