EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of Augustus John, a prominent British painter from 1926. The portrait, skillfully created by Alick P F Ritchie, showcases John's distinctive features and bohemian style. With his long beard and hat adorning his head, he exudes an air of artistic eccentricity. The image is actually a cigarette card issued by John Player & Sons, known for their collectible cards featuring various subjects. This particular card presents a straight-line caricature of Augustus Edwin John, providing a unique twist to the traditional portrait format. Augustus John's occupation as a painter is evident in this snapshot; his intense gaze suggests deep contemplation while holding a cigarette between his fingers adds an element of intrigue. The monochromatic color scheme enhances the overall moodiness and intensity captured within the frame. As we delve into this vintage print from the 1920s, it becomes clear that Alick P F Ritchie has successfully immortalized Augustus John's enigmatic persona through artistry and attention to detail. This piece serves as both an homage to one of Britain's most celebrated painters and as an intriguing artifact from a bygone era.
