Lot 429

Description

Circle of Thomas Cooper Gotch, 
British 1854-1931- 

Portrait of a girl, bust-length, wearing a brown dress with a white lace collar and a red bow in her hair, against floral wallpaper; 

pencil and watercolour on paper, 54.5 x 41.6 cm. 

Note: 
The present composition is strikingly reminiscent of Gotch's distinctive portraits, often featuring young women against a background of elaborate wallpaper, including, most famously, his regal portraits of his daughter Phyllis, entitled 'My Crown and Sceptre' and 'The Child Enthroned', as well as lesser-known works like his study of a woman in the Ferens Art Gallery collection [KINCM:2005.4979]. Although he often worked in oil, he also produced a number of watercolours which exhibit the same approach, such as those which sold at Phillips, London, on 29 April 1997, lot 59, and at Sotheby's, London, on 21 June 1995, lot 6.

The buyer shall pay the hammer price together with a premium thereon of 26% up to £20,000 (31.2% inclusive of VAT), 25% from £20,001 - £500,000 (30% inclusive of VAT), 20% from £500,001 thereafter (24% inclusive of VAT). The premium price is subject to VAT at the standard rate.

VAT
VAT is not charged on the hammer price unless it is stated that there is 'VAT applicable on the hammer price at the end of the description. Buyer's premium is subject to VAT.
