| Notes | The painting was originally thought to be of the children of John Angerstein, a relative of the Boucherett family. See Musée du Louvre, Oeuvre 1754. See also the notes for Lot 46: Sir Thomas Lawrence, P.R.A. (Bristol 1769-1830 London), Head studies of Emilia Mary, Juliana and Maria Boucherett (Christie's). Quote: "The Louvre picture was, for many years, thought to show the children of John Angerstein until Garlick (op. cit., pp. 155-6, no. 120) connected the child in the lower right of the composition, clearly in the midst of a game imitating the adult world, with the subtitle of the portrait exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1800: The Little Orator. The identification of the Boucherett daughters as the sitters for these highly instinctive head studies is further confirmation of the identity of the children in the Louvre picture." | |||||||||||||||||||||||
