'Head of a Man.' (1919) Frank Dobson began as a painter though after WW1 turned toward sculpture. Throughout the 1920s and 30s he built a reputation as an outstanding artist and was among the first to prefer direct carving of the material rather than modelling a maquette first.

Textile Design Graduate Emer Dobson's collection “No Such Thing as Overdressed” looks at the place of vibrant, high-impact prints in modular fashion and is inspired by the anticipation of renewed style post-lockdown. https://t.co/tctmnG0GLv

Against all the odds, William Dobson is still climbing steadily in the Waldy&Bendy poll. Come on art lovers, vote with your hearts not your art history books. That's him in the middle of the group portrait, top left. Looks like Jay Rayner. Surely that's worth a vote on its own! https://t.co/H8nCicsIv9

2/ It also seems that Van Dyck played a role in the education of my man, William Dobson, who succeeded him as court painter to Charles 1st. On the left, Van Dyck self-portrait with Endymion Porter. On the right, Dobson's Endymion Porter. Who would rather have been painted by?

13th Feb 1644:
The Earl of Montrose's commission as King Charles's Lieutenant-General in Scotland is amended.
Instead of being subordinate to Prince Maurice, he is now directly subordinate to the King himself. This reflects immense trust.
