EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving of Willem Wissing, a renowned Dutch portrait artist who made a significant impact during his time in England. The image, created by the English School in the 19th century, is part of a private collection and offers us a glimpse into Wissing's artistic prowess. Wissing (1656-1687) was highly regarded for his skillful portrayal of individuals from various walks of life. This particular engraving comes from "The Story of Nell Gwyn and the Sayings of Charles the Second" by Peter Cunningham, published in London in 1852. It beautifully captures Wissing's ability to capture not only physical features but also the essence and personality of his subjects. As we delve into this artwork, we are transported back to the Restoration era in England. The intricate details within Wissing's painting reveal not only his mastery over brushstrokes but also provide insights into fashion trends prevalent during that period. This piece serves as a testament to Wissing's lasting legacy as an influential figure within European art history. His work continues to be celebrated across Great Britain and beyond for its contribution to British culture and artistic heritage. Through this photo print, we can appreciate both the talent of Willem Wissing himself and the dedication put forth by Bridgeman Images in preserving such remarkable works of art for generations to come.
