Father’s Day: Portrait of the Artist’s Father

June 17, 2016 By Wendy Campbell

Happy Father’s Day all you dads out there!  In honour of this special day, DAF presents a selection of well known portraits of artist’s fathers.  Throughout history, artists have painted their fathers for numerous reasons; “as a tribute, to capture a memorable face, to work through conflicting emotions, as a family legacy, or the simple availability of a model.”

Have a great day everyone!
