Warner Hassells

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Warner Hassells (fl. 1680–1710), was a portrait painter.

Hassells resided in London but was probably a native of Germany. He belonged to the school of Sir Godfrey Kneller, who painted his portrait in 1700. Hassells is known by a few portraits which have been engraved, including those of (1690) and (1701), a Frankfurt merchant, both in mezzotint by J. Smith, and an anonymous portrait in line by . He also painted miniatures and in watercolours. Hassells is wrongly described by Walpole as William Hassell. George Lambert is stated to have been his pupil.
