- Description
A woman in a blue and white sunhat, a white dress and blue scarf, seated against a landscape, probably in Brittany, the sea in the background. Shows Amalia Pinhey, the artist's Canadian painting companion in 1913 during a trip to Concarneau. Mrs Pinhey and her son Eardley and daughter Constance stayed in Paris at the same location as Maud Sherwood and the group went on a sketching tour of Brittany in 1913.
The artist has signed with her married name, suggesting that this was a later copy. Information from Julie Heraud, great-niece of artist and former owner of painting
The watercolour in the past was known by the artist's family under the title of 'Constance' and was earlier believed to show Amalia Pinhey's daughter Constance Pinhey who would have been 21 in 1913. However the painting appears to show an older woman and is more likely to be Amalia Pinhey, (aged 49 in 1913) than Constance Pinhey
