专家说明

The sitter was the daughter of Henry Charles Sturt of Crichel House, Dorset, and Lady Charlotte Penelope, daughter of Robert Brudenell, 6th Earl of Cardigan. In 1848 she married Thomas George Baring, 1st Earl of Northbrook (1826-1904), the statesman and Viceroy of India from 1872-1876.

Richard Buckner spent his formative years in Rome where he befriended Frederic, Lord Leighton and specialised in Italian genre subjects. He returned to London in 1845 and quickly established a highly successful portrait practice. He exhibited at the Royal Academy, the British Institution and at Sussex Street. A sale of his work was held at Christie's on the 22nd February 1873.
