I am a regular at any thrift shop I drive by. My latest find, a Frank Moss Bennett painting that was sitting on a top shelf. $6.99
A little about Frank: Frank Moss Bennett (1874–1952) was a #British #painter of #portraits, #historicalscenes and #architecture. He was known for his #posthumousportraits, particularly of soldiers killed during the #FirstWorldWar, which were commissioned by grieving relatives as a remembrance of their sons and husbands.
He painted portraits as well as historic and religious paintings. His work was exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts from 1898 to 1928 as well as the Liverpool Art Gallery from 1899 to 1932. More recently, his work has been auctioned by Christie's and Bonhams. His portrait of Theodore Martin is at the National Portrait Gallery in London
