Hugh Goldwin Rivière, Portrait Of A Gentleman
A large three-quarter-length portrait of a seated gentleman by noteworthy British artist, Hugh Goldwin Rivière (1869-1956). It’s always so fascinating to see a portrait depicting a subject in their own home, as we gain a broader understanding of their context, position, and character.
In this particular portrait, the older gentleman seems relaxed in his environment, while also looking out through youthful eyes that convey vivacity and vigour.
Hugh Goldwin Rivière studied at the Royal Academy Schools and worked primarily in Paris, London, and later in Sussex. His father was Briton Rivière RA (1840-1920) who was also a fine portraitist and was elected a Royal Academician in 1881.
Like his father, Hugh exhibited extensively, including 90 paintings at the Royal Academy and 24 at the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. Examples of his work can be found at the Victoria & Albert Museum, the National Portrait Gallery, and many other public collections.
The painting is signed and dated in the bottom left.
Medium: Oil on canvas
Size including frame: 55” x 43” / 140cm x 109cm
Year of creation: 1918
Condition: Small areas where the paint is thinner and a few minor losses. The frame has age-related wear, losses and repairs.
Artist’s auction highlight: £12,000 achieved at Sotheby’s, UK, in 1994 for ‘Portrait of Margaret Jane Russel, Mrs Herbert John Allcroft (1910)’. Brave Fine Art is a boutique art dealership based in the picturesque Malvern Hills, England.

Terms and conditions
Please be assured that we inspect every painting, drawing or print to check for issues relating to its condition during its time here with us. When we notice a fault or potential problem, we will note this down on the item's condition report, which can be found within each listing. We take various steps to ensure that your artwork will stand the test of time but we're unable to offer any warranties or guarantees as we're just one custodian in a potentially long line of previous owners.
Our inspections include a check for any signs of woodworm, historic or otherwise, as this is not unusual in antique frames or stretchers. If we discover any small holes, we treat the wood with a solution which states that "its deep penetration ensures effective protection for many years and prevents re-infestation". With this in mind, it's very unlikely that any future issues will occur, especially given that the wood may also have been treated by previous owners. However, as mentioned above, we are unable to provide any warranties or guarantees - just be assured that we care.
Also, many of the paintings include hanging equipment, namely wire or string. Sometimes this is already present when we purchase an item so we check to see if it's been attached correctly. However, we can't test the durability of this equipment as many of the paintings are sold quickly. So please do seek any advice if you're unsure how to hang your paintings correctly, especially if they're heavy, and do check on them from time to time.
If you have any questions at all, please just ask.
