SITTER
Desirable oils generously applied on canvas study of this learned lady Barrister who is wearing a single string of pearls.
There is a lyre shaped brooch on her dress suggesting she is possibly interested in music or it may be complimenting her green silk scarf suggesting she may be Irish.
A pleasing portrait which would hang well in chambers and may be of interest to someone in the legal profession or justices.
