In this painting, Sir John Lavery (1856-1941) depicts Lady Doris Castlerosse (née Delevingne), who rose to fame in the twenties when sharing a flat with the actress, Gertrude Lawrence.⠀
.⠀
Lavery painted Lady Castlerosse's famed legs, not once, but twice, with her limbs depicted in the foreground of the picture as well as in the seated figure whose face is out of view.⠀
.⠀
Art lovers today regard David Hockney as the 'owner' of Californian pool imagery. It may come as a surprise to some to discover that an aged Irish painter shared his enthusiasm and acted as its precedent.⠀

Sir John Lavery R.A., R.S.A., R.H.A. (1856-1941), 'The Viscountess Castlerosse, Palm Springs', 1938. Estimate: £400,000-£600,000,⠀
