Frank Martin, the British artist whose 1974 portrait of Louise Brooks has been discussed recently on this blog (see the July 21stand August 3rd entries), died in London on July 29th. He was aged 84. The Independent (link to story) and other British newspapers ran obituaries which mentioned his portrait of Brooks and others early film stars.
