Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Alice Blue Gown
Thanks for your answer Sandra. My sister has a lid of a chocolate box with the picture on given to her by our grandmother. she was born in 1900 and the picture was done when she was in her teens.It was commissioned by the paper company to advertise their stationary. we have several other photos taken when she was sitting for artists. one picture has been recently re-released as a print, now called Her Favourite. It was done when she was about 7 and she is in a garden holding a rabbit.This was painted by Frederick Samuel Beaumont. Her name was Alice.We are wondering if there are any other pictures of her that we have not seen. Lynette.
