Oil on original canvas in honest untouched condition, a little dirty, stretcher marks showing but otherwise in good order, housed in probably the original now rather tatty gilt gesso frame.
Local private vendor.
The painting hung for many years in Stonesfield Manor, Oxfordshire and has been passed down the family from the current vendors grandmother.
Ottoline Murrell was persuaded to buy the painting by the family to support the artist. The painting was professionally restored in the 1970?s.
Frances Spalding the author of Roger Fry, ?Art and Life? visited Stonesfield Manor to view and photograph the painting before the publishing of the book.
