Blank greetings card with envelope featuring:

James Northcote NPG 3253

© National Portrait Gallery, London

by James Northcote

Northcote painted many self-portraits. Here, he depicts himself with one hand holding a palette and brushes. The other hand is raised to his forehead as if seeking inspiration, the sort of gesture sometimes found in portraiture of the Romantic period. This portrait was painted in London at a time when he was trying his hand at genre and history painting.
