Dame Laura Knight: The Penton Children

Dame Laura Knight, (British, 1877–1970), The Penton children, Painted circa 1910, Watercolour: 23.3 x 18.7 (in) / 59.1 x 47.6 (cm), Signed lower right: Laura Knight, Available at Richard Green

“Knight’s superb handling of watercolour is evident in this dazzling en plein air portrait of Stephen, Michael and Anthony Penton, painted in their grandfather’s New Forest garden. In contrast to the broad brushstrokes of her oil paintings, Laura’s delicate and detailed watercolours of this period demonstrate her highly refined technique.”
