Quiz: Find the Original
April 24 2020
Picture: The Saleroom
Posted by Adam Busiakiewicz:
Because the weekend is nearly here, I have caved in and found another tricky copy for readers to find. This picture 'Attributed to Benjamin Robert Haydon' is coming up for sale at Roseberys and is a copy of a known painting. Can you find the original? No tips this time either.
No prizes, just for fun.
Update - Congratulations again to Andrew Quick who spotted that this picture is a copy of John Opie's Self Portrait (1801-2) in the collection of the Royal Academy.
