Stamped,
EDWARD STOTT A.R.A. (lower left)
Provenance:
Artist's sale, Sotheby's 4 July 1918 (165): Hugh Blaker in
1936; Cecil French.
A
young girl in a pinafore dress, facing to the left with her
arms behind her back, stands before a taller, older girl similarly
attired with her hair in ribbons.
Inscribed
on the backboard, in pencil, STUDY FOR "THE CYDER PRESS".
The
whereabouts of The Cider Press are unknown to the compiler.
Three studies for the painting,
none of which can be identified with the Cecil French drawing,
were included in The Memorial Exhibition of Painting and Drawing
by the Late Edward Stott ARA, held by The Fine Art Society
in 1919 (nos. 5, 34, 65).
