Portrait of Dorothy Stone

Erich Wolfsfeld

Ben Uri Gallery and Museum

Wolsfeld's patrons, artists Ben and Fay Pomerance, encouraged commissions among Sheffield’s Anglo-Jewish community in the late 1940s; his resulting portrait of Dorothy Stone, wearing turquoise satin and a favoured ruby and platinum bracelet, was considered an excellent likeness. Wolfsfeld later painted out the background after Dorothy considered it a distraction.
