Catalogue Note

We are grateful to Lorian Peralta-Ramos who has seen the present painting first hand and confirms it to be by Munnings and painted circa 1913.  This picture will be included in her forthcoming catalogue raisonnĂ© on the artist.

It has been suggested that the sitter depicted here is Joey Carter-Wood, the brother of the first Mrs. Munnings, Florence. Carter-Wood was an amateur painter who painted with the Newlyn group of artists under the direction of Stanhope Forbes about 1911.
