Description: | 52.0 x 38.2 CRE HUNTER, James; (Scottish; c1715-1745) This amateur drawing of a characteristically alert young gentleman was recently identified as portrait of the anatomist, and founder of the Hunterian, William Hunter (1718-1783). William's elder brother James (c.1717-1745) studied law in Edinburgh, but his passion was for painting. This work is drawn on professionally prepared vellum, an animal skin stretched over a wooden frame like a canvas. | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | PORTRAIT : MALE : HEAD : HUNTER, JOHN : HUNTER 2007 : RUBENS TO MACKINTOSH : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
