Description
CIRCLE OF JOHN HOPNER OIL ON CANVAS, 1765 H 30", W 25", JOHN FENNINGS, ESQ. Three quarter torso portrait depicts John Fennings in green coat, ruffled shirt, and blue cravat.

English gilt wood and gesso frame. Provenance: Estate of George Palmer, Indian Village, Detroit, MI.
Condition
Canvas expertly cut where it met the stretcher and mounted on a canvas c.1900. Overall craquelure has been stabilized. Retains varnish from restoration c.1900. Under UV light, only minor touches in background fluoresce. Frame has significant losses. While the attribution to Hoppner on the stretcher label is erroneous, the work and frame are English and most likely executed in the last half of the 18th. c..
