Sir John Crampton - Portrait of a lady, shoulder-length, with her head turned
Est: £300 - £500
Sir John Crampton, Irish 1805-1886 Portrait of a lady, shoulder-length, with her head turned; black and red chalk on paper, 21.7 x 16 cm., together with: Selina Crampton, Irish 1806-1876- Seven sketches of society figures; variously pencil, pen and ink, and watercolour on paper, variously inscribed, 16.5 x 23.7 cm. and smaller, eight (8), (part mounted / unframed). Provenance: Private Collection, UK. Note: John Crampton was a career diplomat, serving as Ambassador in Washington, Madrid and Russia. These experiences inspired his artistic practice, with his first known works, dated 1824, depicting scenes in St Petersburg and Moscow. Crampton studied for a time under David Cox (Junior), depicting the landscapes and scenes he encountered on his travels, alongside the Irish countryside around his home in Bushey Park, County Wicklow. Selina Crampton, John's sister, frequently accompanied her brother on his assignments. The present sketches demonstrate her sharp perception of her surroundings, and humorously depict the wide variety of figures and events she encountered.
