The "Portrait of John Crome (1768-1821)" is a distinguished work by the renowned English artist John Sell Cotman, a prominent figure in the Norwich School of painters. This portrait captures the likeness of John Crome, also known as "Old Crome," who was a pivotal figure in the same artistic movement. Crome was a celebrated landscape painter and one of the founding members of the Norwich School, which was the first provincial art movement in Britain.

John Sell Cotman, born in 1782, was a contemporary and close associate of Crome. Cotman is best known for his watercolors, etchings, and architectural subjects, but he also produced a number of notable portraits. The "Portrait of John Crome" is a testament to Cotman's versatility and his deep respect for his fellow artist. The painting is believed to have been created during the early 19th century, a period when both artists were actively contributing to the flourishing art scene in Norwich.

In this portrait, Cotman employs a keen eye for detail and a masterful use of light and shadow to convey Crome's character and presence. The composition is both intimate and respectful, reflecting the camaraderie and mutual admiration between the two artists. Crome is depicted with a thoughtful expression, his gaze directed slightly away from the viewer, which adds a sense of introspection and depth to the portrayal.

The portrait not only serves as a visual record of John Crome's appearance but also symbolizes the artistic synergy and shared vision that characterized the Norwich School. It stands as a significant piece within Cotman's oeuvre and offers valuable insight into the personal and professional relationships that shaped the development of British art during the early 19th century. The work is held in high regard and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
