Peoples Portraits

In 2000, the Royal Society of Portrait Painters mounted a millenial exhibition entitled People's Portraits. The idea was to represent ordinary people from all walks of life, and thereby offer a picture of the United Kingdom as it moved from the 20th century into the 21st. The resulting collection is rich in the diversity of its subjects. The artists are all members of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters, and include Daphne Todd, June Mendoza and Jeff Stultiens, among others.
