The Painter

John Hesselius

1728–1778 · American

Reproducing this painter

Every canvas here is rebuilt the way it was originally made: a ground, an underpainting, the body colour, then glazes and a protective varnish. The artist follows the sequence the period demanded rather than a shortcut that would look similar from a distance.
