Edward Lewis Self Portrait
This is a large oil on board self-portrait by Edward Lewis, a Bath-based artist. The painting depicts a three-quarter length view of the artist himself, rendered in a bold and expressive style. The use of colour and brushwork creates a dynamic and engaging image, capturing a sense of the artist’s personality and inner world. The composition is simple yet effective, focusing attention on the figure and his contemplative gaze.
Condition and Collectibility
The painting appears to be in good condition, with expected signs of age and wear consistent with a vintage artwork. The board support is stable, and the paint layers are generally well-preserved. This self-portrait is a unique and compelling example of Edward Lewis’s work, and would be of interest to collectors of British 20th-century art, particularly those interested in portraiture and figurative painting. It offers a fascinating insight into the artist’s self-perception and artistic vision.
