拍品專文

Frith and Isabelle Baker (1822-80) were married in York on 26 June 1845, the year this work was executed. This suggests that it may have been painted while the couple were on their honeymoon in the Derbyshire Dales. Their first address was in Charlotte Street, London, but in 1847 as the family grew, they moved into their first wholly-owned house, 13 Park Village West in Regent's Park. Another portrait of Isabelle Frith was sold in these Rooms from the collection of Christopher Wood on 28 February 2007, lot 56.
