Dance
Dance is a Rococo painting artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Dance hid in plain sight—while other painters chased grand oil skies, this English watercolourist sketched life in a pocket-sized square. He once spent an entire afternoon drawing a friend’s face so slowly the sitter’s tea went cold before the final eyelash. Look past his fancy portraits; flip to *Portrait of James Northcote* (1775-1820) and watch how he turns a single sheet of paper into a room of its own, light pooling around the sitter like a spotlight.
