All of this makes me very happy to be a customer again in the future.' Georgian Toilet Mirror. Customer in Australia .. ''Breathtakingly beautiful Mahogany toilet mirror ! Delicately dovetailed drawers are as smooth as silk. The acorn finials are a treat. The mahogany has a marvelous lustre and fine patina consumate with its age. Beautifully packed with extreme care it arrived in pristine condition. This seller is an absolute joy to work with ! Many thanks.'' Document Cabinet.

Description
This is a very endearing and beautifully painted 19th Century oil painting on canvas; a portrait study of a mother and her daughter. There is a charming naivety about the quality and style of the painting; and the warmth and affection of their relationship really shows through. Period Gilt frame. There is an inscription on paper attached to the back: Mrs. Chas. Purcell Cotter, nee Mary Anne Caroline Gaitskell, and daughter Alice Harriet. Very good condition. It has had a professional clean. Some craquelure. I made a search to try to find some more information about the lady and her daughter in the painting: The lady was Mary Ann Caroline Gaitskill, the wife of Reverend Charles Purcell Cotter. They married in 1852. Alice Harriet Cotter, the little girl was their daughter. Alice might be about 6-8 years old perhaps in the painting, suggesting the painting dates to about 1860. The family lived in Buckinghamshire and the Rev Charles Cotter was the Vicar of a church in the village of Stantonbury. Alice married Charles Henry Miles in 1892, and died in 1927. I couldn't find any reference to her having children.
