Specialist note

Henrietta Garnett was the artist’s granddaughter, born in 1945. She is the author of, among other books, a biography of Anne Thackeray Ritchie (2004). The textile hanging in the present work is a nineteenth-century embroidery from Bokahra, acquired by Vanessa Bell and used as her bedspread (still at Charleston).

We are very grateful to Richard Shone for preparing this catalogue entry.
