Attributed to Augustus Edwin John R.A., P.R.P., R.Cam.A., N.E.A.C., L.G. (19th/20th century) A Lady Seated Reading beside a Fire Above an Estuary, another figure standing nearby Oil on canvas board, 30cm by 40cm (11 3/4in by 15 3/4in) The present work is extremely similar in style to some of John's plein air work, which was often partially done on the spot and later finished in the studio. The work is tentatively attributed to the painter as there are no traces of a signature or inscriptions and sadly no provenance exists. A parallel can also be drawn to the hand of Vanessa Bell (nee Stephen), who was also a figurative painter and painted still life subjects too. She also designed carpets, pottery and book jackets and was the daughter of Sir Leslie Stephen and elder sister of Virginia Woolf. See illustration
