A painter of portraits, genre and landscape, Sarah Setchel enjoyed a long career. The present lot exhibits an attention to detail reminiscent of Pre-Raphaelite landscape, and the work of Edmund George Warren, a frequent exhibitor at the New Watercolour Society. Setchel was awarded a premium by the Society of Arts in 1829 and exhibited there between 1831 and 1867; she exhibited at the Royal Academy between 1831 and 1840 and also at the British Institution and the New Watercolour Society. She became a member of the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours in 1841 but resigned in 1886.
