 <\/p>\n

There is a tradition in Britain of the oil portrait of “great people” (royalty, aristocracy, political and financial elites) which was expressed throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, a tradition which is carried on by photographers in the XX and XXI century.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Celebrated as one of the Masters of this Art of Portraiture, John Swannell exhibited in 1989 at the Royal Academy and then at the National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

He became a member of the Royal Photographic Society in 1993. John Swannell was a guest of the prestigious National Portrait Gallery in London from November 1996 to March 1997.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

His works are present in the greatest museums, the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Royal Photographic Society as well as in the largest private collections in the world.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” video=”” css_animation=”” box_shadow_on_row=”no”][vc_column][vc_empty_space image_repeat=”no-repeat”]
