<p>[QUOTE=&quot;statcat, post: 309476, member: 5954&quot;]This is a watercolor attached to a canvas by British artist Emily J Broughton in 1882. I can&#039;t find much information on her online so I was wondering if anyone else can.</p><p><br /></p><p>She seemed to paint very well but I can only find two other works by her online: a wedding scene oil on canvas and a watercolor sketch of a man. This is pretty surprising to me. I attached these pictures below for reference.</p><p><br /></p><p>I found this information online: <i>Miss Emily Broughton - London painter of figure subjects and portraits. Exhibited 1878-1882 at the Royal Academy &amp; Royal Society of British Artists.</i> I cannot find her date of birth or death.</p><p><br /></p><p>This painting is 20 x 26 and it&#039;s kind of puzzling because it&#039;s a watercolor attached to a canvas which is something I&#039;ve never seen before. I can see where the watercolor paper ends and the canvas begins on the left and right sides. I know she must&#039;ve attached this watercolor to the canvas herself because the paint extends off the paper and onto the canvas on the left and right.</p><p><br /></p><p>I can also see a separation of paper but it works around the woman&#039;s clothing (I attached a photo with a red line highlighting where it separates). I&#039;m not sure why it&#039;s like this so any guesses would be appreciated. Unfortunately this painting suffered some damage from being poorly packed so there&#039;s now some scuffs from it being rubbed against the wood and broken glass toward the sides.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]102205[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102206[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102207[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102208[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102209[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]102210[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
