• Resumen

  • The article discusses the 1760s watercolour "A lady painting" and drawing "A lady copying at a drawing table," by Paul Sandby, and suggests that the woman depicted in the works is Rhoda Delaval. The author traces Sandby's career as a drawing master for the children of noble families and analyzes the setting of the painting to suggest that it depicts Grosvenor House in London, England, where the Delaval family resided in the 1760s. Also discusses are differences in the painting and drawing.
