Lot Description William Hogarth (London 1697-1764) Head study of a lady with her son oil on canvas 4 5/8 x 3 5/8 in. (11.7 x 9.3 cm.) Lot Condition Report I confirm that I have read this Important Notice and agree to its terms. View Condition Report Provenance Anonymous sale; Sotheby's, London, 15 July 1998, lot 45 (£19,500). Literature To be included in Elizabeth Einberg's forthcoming book Hogarth: The Complete Catalogue of the Paintings. View Lot Notes › This portrait study can be dated stylistically to the early 1730s. Similar buff ground to that on which this study is painted has also been left visible in the later and much larger unfinished Head of a Lady, called Lady Pembroke in the Tate Britain, London. It has been suggested that the present study may represent Mary Edwards (d. 1743), wife of Lord Anne Hamilton and her son, Gerard Anne Edwards (b. 1732). Mary Edwards Hamilton was a significant patron of Hogarth, commissioning a portrait of Gerard Anne as a baby in his cot in 1732 (Upton House), a family group portrait in 1733-4, and purchasing his Southwark Fair in 1734.
