專家說明
The present watercolour is a copy after Watt's painting in Tate Britain.
Emilie Barrington was one of three known assistants working in Watt's studio in 1887, the others being the marine painter Henry Moore and Fanny Cornforth's stepson Cecil Schott. Mary Watts records that Schott painted the copy of Hope once owned by Mrs Cassavetti (MSW cat.S.73a). However, the present picture, painted as it is in watercolour and chalk, would appear to be by Barrington. In her work Reminiscences of G.F. Watts, she writes 'I made a small copy of the picture in water-colour and chalk'.
