| Description |
English: Gilt-framed portrait of Peter Moore 'as a young man' by Tilly Kettle, oil on canvas, circa 1775 (as so attributed in 2007 by the art experts in British Paintings 1500-1850 at Sotheby's, London).
It was previously attributed to Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788) - probably when it was in the possession of Colonel Charles Thomas John Moore (1827-1900), of Frampton Hall, Lincolnshire. He was the grandson of Edward Moore of Stockwell House, Surrey - eldest brother of Peter Moore. The portrait descended in this line of the family to the beneficiaries of Mrs Valerie Tunnard-Moore, widow of Thomas Charles Poynder Tunnard-Moore (1904-1984), who was a grandson of Colonel C.T.J. Moore, of Frampton Hall. She died in October 2005. It was then sold by auction at Sotheby's (6 June, 2007) to Robin Askew of Toronto, Canada - in whose possession it now remains. Robin Askew's mother was Joyce Mary née Moore, a direct descendant of Peter Moore. |
