Mr & Mrs Dobson re-united
September 18 2017
Picture: Tate
Tate Britain has hung William Dobson's early self-portrait alongside that of his wife, for the first time since 1948. The portrait of Dobson's wife was bought by the Tate in 1992. The self-portrait was bought by a private collector at Bonhams last year, and then lent to the National Portrait Gallery. The two pictures will be on display now until 2020. More here.
