拍品專文

Elizabeth, daughter of George Venables-Vernon, 1st Baron Vernon, was brought up at Sudbury Hall, Derbyshire, and married her cousin George Harcourt, in 1765. They lived at Nuneham Courtenay, Oxfordshire, where they employed Capability Brown to redesign the gardens, and Paul Sandby to advise on the interior of the house. Unusually, Elizabeth is depicted kneeling in an idyllic parkland landscape.
