Bing Jones After Augustus John Portrait of Robin Oil Painting Signed

A charming and characterful portrait of Robin, painted in oil on board in the style of Augustus John.

The sitter is depicted in three-quarter view, wearing a red/coral blouse against a dark, atmospheric background. The work has a strong early-to-mid 20th-century portrait aesthetic, with expressive brushwork and a restrained, muted palette.

The painting is signed lower right and retains a Bing Jones Portraits label to the reverse, together with a handwritten note stating that the work is a copy of a portrait by Augustus John, painted in 1915 of his daughter Robin. The reverse also indicates that the present work was made in a period-style frame.
