John Barnard Whittaker painted scenes of everyday life and theater in 19th-century Britain. His *Comedy and Tragedy* shows two masks on a shelf, while *Portrait of a Man* captures a sitter in quiet detail. His third piece, *Girl and Dog*, balances tenderness and humor. See how his brush freezes quiet moments, then step into *Portrait of a Man* to meet the figures up close.
