Lily of the Valley was one of Winifred Nicholson’s favourite flowers and one that she painted a number of times. Notably in Mughetti (Italian for Lily of the Valley and sold in these Rooms on 12 December 2008, lot 33), which was the first work where she placed flowers on a windowsill with a view behind, and Lily of the Valley, St. Bees (sold in these Rooms on 27 May 2010, lot 48). The south parlour was the main sitting room at Boothby, Winifred Nicholson’s parents’ house in Cumberland, and where Winifred lived from the beginning of the war until 1959.

We are very grateful to Jovan Nicholson for his assistance in preparing this catalogue entry.
