Lady Manton, nee Claire Nickols, wife of Joseph Watson, 1st Baron Manton (d.1922), portrait by John Lavery, 31" * 26", private collection. To match portrait by same artist of Lord Manton
1923 portrait by Sir John Lavery of the jockey Joe Childs (1923), who rode several of Watson's winners trained at Manton, Wiltshire. It is unclear who commissioned the portrait
Provenance: The artist, thence by descent to his grand-daughter Ann Moira Forbes-Sempill, 20th Lady Sempill (1920–1995), elder daughter and heiress of Eileen Marion Lavery (d.1935) by her second husband (whom she married in 1919) William Francis Forbes-Sempill, 19th Lord Sempill (1893–1965). Her sale; Christie's May 1966; Private Collection, Texas, U.S.A. It was thus never owned by the sitter, who died in the year the portrait was made, or by his family. Presumably there was no enforceable legal contract between artist and sitter and the sitter's heirs refused to take delivery of the item. There was no family connection between Lavery and Watson and no apparent reason why the artist would wish to retain the portrait. In 1923 Lavery also painted a portrait of the jockey Joe Childs, who rode several of Watson's winning racehorses. It is unclear who commissioned that portrait.

Licensing

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.
