This painting has come from a private source and has been passed down through family by repute, since it was painted. It was relined and restored in March 1927. On the back is a paper label for S.W Hoary "artistic frame marker print seller expert in gilding and picture restoration, 152 St Michaels Hill Bristol" and is dated March 1927. There is a bump to the canvas to the left of the figure close to her upper arm. With this there is some associated paint loss. There is some craquelure to the paint surface. Under UV light there are light scattered patches of overpainting including small areas at the top of her head, around the knuckles of the fingers of her right hand, some small scattered patches in the skirt of the dress and the folds in the bottom right corner. A few scattered patches in the background. It is contained in a gilt moulded frame which has been overpainted and has some minor chips and scuff marks. The painting comes with some handwritten notes by a family member dating to 1983, referring to the portrait as "An unsigned portrait "Aunt Lamport" presumed to be of Sir Peter Lely's school". The notes also refer to the portrait as "the little lady and states that it hung for many years at the Grange in Farnham in Surrey" and then describes the descent to the current owner.
