              Mary Anne Welch was the mother of John St Vincent

              Welch, who was a friend of Tom Roberts.  The subject

              came to Sydney to visit her son after her husband’s death

              in 1890.  According to her descendant in England,

              Roberts painted her portrait and she was so pleased by it

              that she commissioned one of her late husband, which

              Roberts did from a photograph, cat. 198.  This portrait

              was originally in a wide frame and it was presumably

              cut down some time after (c.1910) and reframed.  The

              portrait must have been executed prior to 1893 when the

              subject returned to England.

             

              Provenance:

              Mary Anne Welch – on her death, Joseph Welch (son)

              - private collection, England

              d60i.jpg (93827 bytes)

             

              This painting is a companion to the portrait of Mary Anne

              Welch.  It is a posthumous portrait done from a photo-

              graph and commissioned by Mary Anne Welch, the

              subject’s widow.  Joseph Welch died in 1889.  This

              portrait could be the same as the one referred to in a

              letter to S.W. Pring, 7 April 1895, which Roberts sent

              from Inverell (Mitchell Library).  Roberts wrote, “Please

              thank Welch for his kind message about the portrait – it

              was bound to be so – a painter needs to be able to form

              his own idea of the subject – that’s hardly possible with a

              photograph”.  Roberts was referring to John St Vincent

              Welch, the subject’s son, whose portrait Roberts also

              painted when he stayed with Welch in the Blue

              Mountains, cat. 294.
