Here's a commission I just finished working on for a customer at my job. It's based on the Lady of Liberty, which was made to honor the end of slavery on the island of St. Martin, in the Caribbean.

One of the best loved paintings in the collection, The Red Rose (1923) is one of some 400 portraits the artist made of his wife, Hazel Lavery.

previous portraits of Mrs William Burrell (1892), Sarah Bernhardt (1912) and Viscountess Curzon hide beneath Hazel’s likeness!

in 1941, Sir John Lavery passed away. Lavery always wanted to be a portrait painter although his earliest successes were with landscapes, picking up prizes at the Paris Salon. When Queen Victoria sat for him, however, his success as a fashionable portraitist was assured.

1st of January is not only New Years Day but also the independence day of Haiti, a country with a rich recent history, being the first black republic and the first country in the new world to abolish slavery

Abolitionist John Brown took hold of a federal armory in Harpers Ferry, hoping to arm local slaves and wreak havoc on pro-slavery states.

It's hard to wrap my head around the fact that 150 years later a white supremacist rally and Nazi flags flew not far off in 2017.
