John Vanderbank
1694–1739
(b London, 9 Sept. 1694; d London, 23 Dec. 1739). English painter and book illustrator of Dutch extraction. He had a considerable practice as a portraitist in the years immediately after Kneller's death, but he led a profligate life and his work—although vigorous—is often marred by sloppy handling.
