Press Photo Close-Up View of Sir Winston Churchill Painted Portrait - afa54729 Sir Winston Churchill - A Posthumous Portrait--Rarely does a man, no matter how famous, have his portrait painted after his death, but Deal, one of the Cinque Ports, commissioned 40-year-old Dennis Ramsay to paint Sir Winston Churchill in the uniform of the Lord Warden. Sir Winston was also a Freeman of Deal and the new portrait will be handed over to the town on October 23rd where it will hang in the Town Hall. First, however, it is to be exhibited to the public at the galleries of Patterson and Shipman, 19, Albemarle St., W. 1. for three weeks beginning on October 2nd. Almost immediately after Deal has received its portrait, it will be taken away on loan to the library of the House of Commons in readiness for the opening on October 31st. Dennis Ramsay, who was pupil of Pietro Annigoni, examined some 1500 photographs of Sir Winston and finally selected nine from which to make a composite drawing. It was from this that he worked to produce the portrait. Sir Winston wears the Sash and Star of the Garter - the only occasion it has been worn with the Lord Warden's uniform - with the Order of Merit and the Companion of Honour round his neck. The size of the canvas is 52 x 39 in. OPS a detail of the head. Photo measures 8 x 10.25 inches. Photo Is dated -- none.
