  • Herbert Wilson Foster,  British 1846/48-1929-  Alma, portrait of a young lady, bust-length, wearing
    Nov. 20, 2024

    Herbert Wilson Foster,  British 1846/48-1929-  Alma, portrait of a young lady, bust-length, wearing

    Est: £700 - £900

    Herbert Wilson Foster,  British 1846/48-1929-  Alma, portrait of a young lady, bust-length, wearing a pink dress with a green-trimmed frill and holding a bunch of daffodils;  oil on canvas, signed 'HW Foster' (upper left), bears artist's label attached to the reverse, 47.5 x 40 cm.  Exhibited:  [Probably] 130th Royal Academy Exhibition, 1898, no.933.  Note:  Foster exhibited a number of works at the Royal Academy between 1873 and 1899, including the present painting, which exhibits the artist's great skill and sensitivity as a portraitist. Indeed, Foster's close attention to detail is exhibited by the fact that he worked for a time as a porcelain decorator, specialising in portraits of members of the royal family, amongst other contemporary figures, for manufacturers such as Mintons. In 1893, Foster accepted a position teaching at Nottingham School of Art, where his pupils included Laura Knight (1877-1970) and Harold Knight (1874-1961).
