Description

Cornelius Johnson was a painter whose work has long been overlooked. This book sheds new light on his life and art, revealing a sympathetic and expressive artist who worked in a variety of styles and mediums. Johnson's career spanned several decades, during which he created works that not only reflected the artistic influences of his time but also offered valuable insights into the fashion and culture of 17th-century Europe. His portraits are particularly noteworthy for their attention to detail and historical significance. Works by Johnson can be found in many major collections around the world, including British museums and country-house collections in North America, Australia, New Zealand, and The Netherlands. This book explores his life and work in depth, uncovering new information about his time in the Netherlands and his successful career as a portrait painter.
