Summary[edit]

Description
English: Watercolor, bodycolor, and gum arabic on paper, with scratching out

22 X 17 1/2 in., 56 X 44 cm Signed, l.r., W. Hunt

In 1847, William Henry Hunt exhibited two paintings of monks at the Spring Exhibition of the Society of Painters in Watre-Colours. This watercolor, which the artist entitled A Hermit, was the larger of the two. The other, which one author incorrectly suggested might be a self-portrait, depicts the same model, standing, 3/4 length from the right side, holding a bible under his right arm, and looking toward the viewer. It is now in the collection of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, England.
