Artist who made his name as a portrait painter – depicting actors, politicians and several members of the royal family
The artist Michael Noakes, who has died aged 84, turned high society portraiture into a home industry. During a career of more than 60 years, he painted actors, scientists, broadcasters, church leaders, presidents, prime ministers and members of the royal family, often from the comfort of his family home in St John’s Wood, north London, with many of the resulting portraits hanging in the National Portrait Gallery, as well as the British Museum and the House of Commons.
