Description
`Attributed to Joseph Van Aken
Portrait of a gentleman in a red suit and his daughter
Oil on canvas
162 x 114cm
The frame bears a label stating that the portrait is by John Cranch. This is highly unlikely and it is much closer to the work of Thomas Hudson or one of his assistants, such as Joseph van Aken.
Provenance: From the collection of Sir Michael Codron.
