Stitching Mrs. Siddons

[mythosidhe]

Lovely piece to share with you! I found this bit of embroidery on Ruby Lane last month, and put it on layaway. It is, of course, an interpretation of Gainsborough's portrait of the actress Sarah Siddons. The dealer found it locally in a 'country sale' (which I assume is like a flea market?) in England, and dates it circa 1960.
