Emma Sandys - Anna and Agnes Young


1870
pencil and coloured chalks on paper
Private collection
The sitters were the older daughters of William Young of Dulwich, who worked for Lloyds as an Underwriter. They were 8 and 4 in 1870 and her picture Violet seems to have been their younger sister. She did a lot of child portraits, both in oil and in chalks.
