Lot description

Francis John Wyburd, British 1826-1893/1909- Portrait of Sarah Wyburd, the artist's mother, seated quarter-length, wearing a brown dress and a white bonnet; oil on canvas, oval, bears a later printed label which reads 'SARAH WYBURD / NEE CROZIER / PAINTED BY HER SON FRANCIS', 74.7 x 61.2 cm. Provenance: The artist's family, and thence by descent. Note: Wyburd began his artistic training in Lille, before returning to London, where he studied under the lithographer Thomas Fairland (1804-1852). He is known for his sensitive portraits of female sitters, often in historical dress, and typically absorbed in reading or deep in contemplation.
