I looked at the photograph and compared it with others alongside. (I am presuming it's the woman on the left of the picture?). It definitely looks like her, ears are the same and the tip of the nose casts the same shadow. Also the dark rimmed eyes look similar. Must be her?
The woman on the left doesn't look like May Morris to me. Her face is too elongated. Even in the photo of her with Sparling where she is holding a walking stick her face is not as long. Similar facial features but I just don't look at her and go, 'Yes, that's May!' Hopefully, I'm wrong, though!
Thanks both just been sent some more photos of the same woman which I'll post tomorrow. One comment elsewhere says it looks like she is wearing stays which seems strange if true as she certainly believed in rational dress like her Mother.

I don't know, but I would like to see the album. Where has it been all this time?
