Charlotte Bosanquet (British, 1790-1852).
The Drawing Room, Fairford Park, Gloucestershire.
Inscribed on mount: Fairford/Miss Bosanquet, watercolour over traces of pencil.
19.5 x 30.5 cm.
Soane’s changes to this room seem to have been restricted to the chimneypiece and the cornice, and the bookcases seen framing the composition of this watercolour. The two girls in purple are probably Augusta Raymond-Barker and her sister Leonora. The artist was presumably a relative of the girls’ mother Harriet Bosanquet, she was a talented artist of interiors and the Cooper Hewitt Museum in the USA have a collection of her work’.
Provenance: Augusta Raymond-Barker, Fairford Park, Gloucestershire; thence by family descent until 2016.
