Unknown II


This was found in the archives of an Edinburgh art college with no name attached.
The style reminds me of William Etty and the model's hair seems to be of Etty's era.

  1. Looks like a "real guy" and not an idealized model. I'm clan McLaurin, meself-Dee Exx

    1. I agree. You had mentioned your Scottish heritage before, perhaps in our private conversations. It's a good thing!

  2. This one certainly has all the standard Etty features. Those sideburns are lovely. Also known, for some reason, as "bugger grips".
