EDITORS COMMENTS
"This oil painting depicts Walter Burton Harris, a renowned journalist, writer, and traveler, deeply engrossed in his reading material. Painted by his brother, Frederick Leverton Harris, the portrait captures the intellectual and introspective nature of Walter's character. The image was likely created around 1923, long after Walter's extensive travels in Morocco between 1887 and 1906, during which he gained fame as a special correspondent for The Times. Seated comfortably with a paper in hand, Walter's thoughtful expression suggests a deep connection to the words before him. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the painting bring the subject to life, making it a striking addition to any collection. This portrait is a testament to the intellectual pursuits and adventurous spirit of Walter Burton Harris, whose writings continue to inspire and captivate readers even today. The painting is also a beautiful example of the artistic talent of Frederick Leverton Harris, who skillfully captured the essence of his brother's character in this timeless work."
