Sir Godfrey Kneller studied in Amsterdam under Ferdinand Bol, one of Rembrandt’s pupils, before going to Italy in 1672. His “Elijah” of that year gives evidence of a style close to Bol’s. In Italy he began to paint portraits and modified his style. Arriving in England in 1674 or 1675, he soon established himself as a portrait painter, especially after he painted Charles II, and he succeeded the leading portraitist of the Restoration Period, Sir Peter Lely, as principal painter to the king. Kneller was knighted in 1691 and made a baronet in 1715. Though married, he died without legitimate issue, and the baronetcy became extinct upon his death.
Label on the back "Bought by Arthur Lewis Kennaway at Lord Sheffields Sale, 1909."
