8 de ago. de 2023 · When Angela was living in Australia the family owned both dogs and cats. In 1982 Angela’s youngest son, Lance, edited a booklet of extracts from letters exchanged between his mother and Angela’s mother, Margaret Mackail. It’s an entertaining and, at times, surprising collection. Here are just a few examples of Lance’s life with the kitten:

Clearly a testament to their marital relationship, the prose is prominently painted in gold capital letters and occupies a central position on the instrument’s outer case.
With its restrained composition and muted scheme, this unfinished portrait of the artist’s daughter Margaret is no different. It was probably executed around the time of her marriage. Perhaps his choice to depict her within a walled garden and wearing blue, a color associated with the Virgin Mary, suggests some of a father’s conflicted feelings on losing a daughter to a new husband.
