The chest behind the lady playing the harp (I did have the name of the model somewhere !) is a Chinese Coromandel Lacquered Chest and was the property of The Duchess of Rutland. Its stand is a Charles II silvered carved wood stand. The gold frame mirror looks as though it could be Italian/French and according to the V&A Museum in London can be dated at about 1600.The harpist is wearing a green dress with yellow cape. L.S. Field

The peticular painting you are describing is labeled "Lady with a Harp" on the print I have.

Mine has no such markings on it. The only markings it has is where LCT signed it. There is nothing to indicate that it is a print and I believe it to be the original although without an expert to appraise it I can't be sure.

I recently purchased two prints by L. Campbell Taylor, "The Sampler" (1933) and "Lady with a Harp" (1937). Both have publishing information; "The Sampler" is documented at both the top and bottom, while "Lady with a Harp" has documentation at the bottom. Although purchased in frames, one without glass, the condition of the framing is poor. I am particularly attracted to the subject matter of these two works and am considering trying to purchase others when they become available. Where can I find information about L. Campbell Taylor? I am particularly interested in what motivated him to paint women at leisure, among other questions.

We inherited the above two prints from a Great Aunt. about thirty years ago. They are signed by the artist, L Campbell Taylor. I am interested in their value with a view to selling.

I have a large framed picture of 'The Letter' Campbell Taylor, that was originally given to my Great Aunt as a wedding gift in 1948. I would live to know more about its origins. lesley.ogram@hotmail.com

Has any body heard of Ophelia Redpath, B. the grand daughter of L.C. Taylor and where can I find her paintings thank you

Hi

My mother was a model for LCT - she lived in Culford near to his home and as a slender girl was ideal to fit into the victorian dresses. In one picture she is sitting at a writing desk wearing a dark maroon dress and black shoes (there was only one shoe and she had to have each foot painted seperately), her hair is piled on top of her head and she is looking down at something in her hand. I can never remember the name of the picture it is something like 'About 1864' - does anyone know.

Her payment was a full-size reproduction (signed) which hangs in her lounge. I grew up with it and it wasnt until i was older that I realised what a lucky girl she had been. She also modelled for some of his other pictures but only in parts - for instance one of the hands in The Patchwork Quilt is hers!

October 22nd, 2006, 07:33 AM

Just spoke to Mum - update.

The picture she is in is called - Lady in red dress when regrding a miniature. About 1830.

Her hands and feet were in The Patchwork Quilt, and she was also the model for The Hall.

I have such a painting which I inherited from my mother about 15 years ago and she, I think, possibly bought it in Scotland many years ago. Is it valuable ?

Hello....I'm Ophelia, grand-daughter of Leonard Campbell-Taylor, and you can contact me through my website at www.opheliaredpath.co.uk. Do ask any questions you like about LCT, although my Ma is probably the best person to talk to. Perhaps I can get you in touch with her.

Best wishes

Ophelia

As do I. It was inherited from my grandmother a couple of years ago. It is mounted in a thick gold frame with curved glass but it sounds exactly the same as Musical Afternoon!
