John Wesley
1993/1613
1850-1900 / John Wesley / Oil on Canvas/Board / Painting / Portrait
Oil on canvas
Unidentified artist, Probably 1800s
A portrait of John Wesley which may have been inspired by Nathaniel Hone's portrait of Wesley, now in the National Gallery. Wesley's pose with a bible (or possibly a hymn book) in his hand and his hand outstretched, as well as the sky in the background, are very similar. However, in Hone's portrait Wesley is depicted walking to the left, in this portrait he is walking to the right.
The style of the painting is somewhat naïve.
