      Featured in this lot is this original William Denune (1712-1750) painting titled, "Gentleman" done in Edinburgh, Scotland circa 1740. William Denune began painting portraits in Edinburgh in 1729, the same year he signed the charter for the Academy of St. Luke, the first art school in the city. He ran studios in Edinburgh and Dumfries and painted the Duke of Hamilton's portrait in 1746 among other middle-class merchants, professionals, and other clients. He passed away in 1950 in Dumfries, Scotland. The painting shows a man posing for the portrait as he looks directly towards the viewer.
