Arthur Pan

Professor Arthur Pan (18 December 1894 – 1983) was a Hungarian artist and portrait painter, whose subjects included Winston Churchill.

[2] On 25 December 1943, The Illustrated London News carried a double page spread of "Mr Churchill—A Characteristic Portrait of the Prime Minister from a Painting By Professor Arthur Pan".

The paintings were of the physician's wife Marion Harding in 1962, which she has in her collection, and an earlier work of his father Dr. Jacob Moritz Blumberg, a surgeon and gynaecologist; the whereabouts of the latter is unknown.

During the 1950s Pan lived for two years at the Bagdhad Palace of King Faisal II of Iraq where he worked on a commission for the Iraqi Royal Family.

[2] Pan made two copies of paintings by Willem van de Velde the Younger, The Shore at Sheveningen and Dutch Vessels Close Inshore at Low Tide, 13.5 x 18.5", both of which he signed.
