This work likely sold at the artist's 1972 exhibition at the Tryon Gallery - details below. The work is signed lower right and presented in a fine burr walnut frame. This portrait is featured on the website of the artist under "Portraits". Artist: Susan Crawford (Scottish, b. 1941) Title: Nude Sitting Medium: Oil on panel Size: 27 x 23 in (59 x 49 cm) including frame Condition: Ready to hang Provenance: Tryon Gallery, Dover Street, London Susan Crawford was born in Scotland in 1941 and was brought up on a farm in East Lothian where her parents bred and trained racehorses.

In 1967 she went to Ireland for a few days and stayed for almost two years, thereby kicking off her professional career as an equestrian artist. On returning to London she bought a studio and started getting private commissions to paint a number of famous racehorses and several royal portraits. She has to date painted 22 Derby winners.

Over the next 40 years she travelled widely; firstly to the USA then Canada, Germany, Brunei, Australia and the Sultanate of Oman as well as with numerous visits to Ireland and throughout the UK. “Susan Crawford’s working of her paintings is masterly and shows a deep love of horses and animals, together with a special sensitivity towards the human form and personality.
