Circle of Sir Francis Grant, PRA, Scottish 1803-1878- Portrait of a lady, half-length, wearing a hat and a black lace veil; oil on canvas laid down on board, oval, 37.7 x 32.6 cm. Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: The present work is highly reminiscent of Grant's portraits of elegant sitters, recalling, for example, portraits of his daughters which sold at Roseberys on 10 March 2026, as lots 230 and 231, and his 'Winter's walk' which sold at Sotheby's, Perthshire, on 26 August 2008, lot 12. A similarly loosely-painted and intimate study by Grant sold at Christie's, London, on 15 July 2022, lot 100.
