Description

Thomas Hennell RWS, 
British 1903-1945 - 

Girl in a school blazer; 

watercolour on paper, 37.5 x 45.4 cm 

Provenance: 
the Artist's sister; 
the Biographer of the Artist, gifted by the above and thence by descent 

Note: 
according to the label from the Artist's biographer on the reverse, this was probably painted in the later 1930s. The identity of the sitter is not known but portrait's by the artist are rare. 

During the 1930s the artist became friendly with figures based in Essex including Edward Bawden and Eric Ravillious. Sadly the artist's promising career was cut short following his premature death in World War II. Many of his works are in the collection of the Imperial War Museum, Fry Art Gallery and Manchester Art Gallery.
