Unsigned. Undated. Untitled. Previously titled by Library: Portrait of Dean William Cowper. - Attributions / conjectures
Provenance unknown; possibly a preliminary study by Claxton for, or a copy of, a portrait now hanging at St. Pauls College, Sydney University. Painting is very similar to the engravings by George B. Shaw of Claxton's portrait at P2/C. Possibly a preliminary study for or a copy of the portrait of Archdeacon William Cowper by Marshall Claxton at ML 897; the position of the sitter, details of costume and background are similar. - Name
