Pen, ink and watercolour with some white heightening on wove paper put down on card.  22½ x 11in. (57.6 x 28cm.)

Signed in ink upper left.

 

Provenance

London, Victoria and Albert Museum.  Museum number P.39-1979. Pressmark WD120.

 

Exhibited

London, Parkin Gallery, 1977, No. 49.

 

 

Although dated  1935 in the Parkin catalogue, a letter from the museum states that the work is inscribed ‘133’ after the signature.  This is most likely to be a misreading of /33, a common method of dating her works at the time.  Accordingly, here ascribed to 1933.
