                                            Please note that the present picture is recorded as having been inscribed 'The Hon. Mrs. Massy Dawson/wife of F.D. Massy Dawson I/By Pickersgill/father/1830' according to an old canvas lining.  The artist is therefore believed to be Henry William Pickersgill, R.A. (1782-1875).
