Joan Thornycroft
Sir W. Hamo Thornycroft, R. A. (1850-1925)
Brown patinated bronze on marble base
17 7/8 inches
Private Collection, Providence, Rhode Island, USA.
In Art Bronzes (1988), Michael Forrest attributes this work, which he calls “A Young Woman,” to Thornycroft and states, “this is presumed to be a portrait of Thornycroft's daughter Joan” (377). Others have suggested on stylistic grounds that it might be by Alfred Drury.
