View in Osterley Park with two children
À propos du tableau
This view of Osterley Park was probably commissioned by Mrs Sarah Child (1741-93), the widow of Robert Child (1739-82) and is based on a drawing (Object Number 1949.88), in the Toledo Museum of Art. Devis is better known as a topographical draughtsman and the large number of his drawings in public collections throughout the United Kingdom testify to his extensive travels. He exhibited a small number of paintings at the Free Society of Artists and the Royal Academy of Art between 1761 and 1781.
