He was born in England, worked a lot in America, then on his return he married Catherine. They lived in Campden, held fabulous parties and he had a passionate admirer in the shape of Violet Hunt (subject of 'A Most Immodest Violet'.)Lots about him and his work on the Net.<br /><br />I have seen this portrait credited to Lucy Carr - possibly Lucy Comyns Carr.<br /><br />I am a guide at Cothay Manor in Somerset, and the current owner is related to Catherine.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13529582517657497123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4512516523018627966.post-64984354368115997662013-03-23T15:32:29.645+00:002013-03-23T15:32:29.645+00:00This is one of those books that I love and listen ...This is one of those books that I love and listen to on a regular basis.
