Provenance
Gloria, Countess Bathurst (1827-2018)
Unframed
The artist’s training at the Academie Julien is reflected in this elegant and rather French looking drawing aux trois crayons drawn in 1899.
Countess Bathurst was a successful model for couturiers such as Jacques Fath and Christian Dior as well as featuring in Vogue. Born Gloria Clarry, she married William Rothenstein’s nephew, the lawyer David Rutherston (1925-1975) in 1965, the son of the artist Albert Rutherston (1881-1953).
Following husband’s death in 1975, Gloria married Henry, 8th Earl Bathurst (1927-2011) in 1978 and moved to Cirencester Park, Gloucestershire.
