George Weissbort
George Weissbort (1928-2013) - Mid 20th Century Oil, The London Bus Conductor

Unknown

About the Item

An arresting portrait depicting a London Bus Conductor in full uniform. Weissbort beautifully captures the pensive expression of the driver's face and uses warm reds in the clothes and uniform to create a vibrant composition. The gentleman's uniform places him as a mid-century bus conductor. The ‘N’ on his badge tells us that he would have been working the London bus routes around 1961 when this portrait was painted. Signed and dated to the lower right. Beautifully presented in a gilt frame with laurel and berry strapwork. On board.
