'The Honble the Misses Beauclerk'

'The Honble the Misses Beauclerk' by Frederick Bacon after Alfred Edward Chalon. This print may relate to a story of the same name. Two young women wearing off the shoulder ball gowns write in a large book. One looks directly at the artist, she stands a little behind the other who is sitting gazing up at her friend.

This print is published by the firm Smith, Elder & Co. The brother of Margaret Brodie Herschel (nee Stewart), Peter Stewart worked for Smith, Elder & Co as a printer.
