John Hamilton Mortimer self-portrait discovered
March 20 2017
Picture: Lowell Libson
One of my favourite stands at TEFAF in Maastricht is always that of Lowell Libson, who specialises in British art. Lowell has exquisite taste, which is always an underappreciated pre-requisite for being a good dealer. I was glad to see he and his colleague Jonny Yarker had discovered, in a minor London saleroom, an unfinished self-portrait by John Hamilton Mortimer. More details here.
