Beschreibung
Henry Wallis (British, 1830-1916) Portrait of a girl wearing an embroidered headdress signed with initials and indistinctly dated '1886?' (lower right); further signed and numbered 'Henry Wallis/no. 4' (on the backing board) watercolour heightened with bodycolour 16 x 12cm (6 5/16 x 4 3/4in). Footnotes: Provenance The artist's studio. By descent from the artist to his daughter-in-law Alice Julyan Wallis (née Roberts), and thence to her great-niece Mrs. Vera G. Whiting, Purley, Surrey. Her sale, Sotheby's, Belgravia, 10th April 1973, part of lot 211 (bought Abbott and Holder). Anon. sale, Sotheby's, Belgravia, 5 July 1977, lot 12. Literature Dennis T. Lanigan & Ronald Lessens, Henry Wallis: From Pre-Raphaelite Painter to Collector/Connoisseur, Woodbridge, 2019, cat. no. 179, pp. 166-167. As Dennis Lanigan notes, the date of the present work has been reported variously as 1881 or 1886. Equally, various suggestions as to the origin of the costume the figure is wearing have been made; as Lanigan comments, 'Although it is possible that this head dress could be an 'invention of tradition' of a typical 19th century folk dress, it is more likely to be authentic and typical to a very regional specific site which we have not been able to discover to this point'. We are grateful to Dennis Lanigan for his assistance in cataloguing this lot.
