| Mary Borden and her Family at Bisham Abbey (1925). John Lavery (Irish, 1856-1941). Oil on canvas. As part of a series of exhibitions by Lavery, possessions were called into play to support personality and provide a glimpse of the living environment of the rich and famous. Thus in Mary Borden and her Family at Bisham Abbey, we see a stylish lady novelist reading at an elegant writing desk in a sumptuous panelled interior with leaded windows and heraldic emblems. |
