Emile Friant (French, 1863-1932)Portrait of William Rothenstein signed, inscribed and dated 'a Will/Rothenstein/E. Friant/91' (lower right)pastel51 x 32.5cm (20 1/16 x 12 13/16in).Footnotes:ProvenanceThe estate of the artist.By decent through the Rothenstein family.Private Collection, UK.This sensitive and charming portrait of William Rothenstein was drawn in 1891. Emile Friant would have been twenty-eight and the young Rothenstein only nineteen. Rothenstein had left Bradford Grammar School three years earlier and enrolled at The Slade but travelled to Paris in 1889 to study at the Academie Julian where he would meet Whistler, Degas and Toulouse-Lautrec and share a studio with Charles Conder in Montmartre. By this time Friant, who had studied at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Nancy and been awarded a scholarship to study under Alexandre Cabanel, had already won numerous prizes at the Paris Salon and been decorated with the ribbon of the French Legion of Honour. Sir William Rothenstein was to become a pillar of the British art scene - a regular exhibitor of portraits and landscapes with the New English Art Club, he is credited as a co-founder of the Carfax Gallery and wrote several books including the first English monograph of Goya's work in 1900. He later became principal of the Royal College of Art and Trustee of the Tate Gallery, receiving a knighthood in 1931. A society figure, the National Portrait Gallery now holds more than 200 Rothenstein portraits of notable figures of his age, and his three-part memoirs Men and Memories features anecdotes about Oscar Wilde, Max Beerbohm, James Whistler, Paul Verlaine, Edgar Degas, and John Singer Sargent.The present portrait has remained in the artist's family since it was conceived and provides an interesting insight into the young artist as he stares confidently at the viewer. Rothenstein was well aware even at this tender age of the power of a good likeness, as was Emile Friant – both artists enjoyed the format and both also produced a number of self-portraits over the years.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
