It looks like it is in the style of the Classicist painters such as Alma-Tadema or Godward, but of course that would be very unlikely.

Yes it looks very like their style but cannot find it online.
I have a vague feeling that I may have seen it in a Pear's Cyclopaedia frontispiece but again cannot find it on the web.

I'm still trying to find anything about this painting. I'm posting this again incase the original post has been missed by anyone. I think it may be part of a larger painting. Any comments welcome.

Fantastic result, that comedian. Thanks very much. It has been a long search and lot of people been involved.
The origin was in the back of my mind so good to confirm that it was correct.
Thanks again.
