Portrait of a Lady (probably Mary Hungate)
When acquired by the museum in 1946 the sitter was known as Anne Catesby or Mary Hungate but no provenance had been recorded. However, recent research has established that the donor was connected through her husband’s family to the Brownes of Kiddington, Oxfordshire.
