About the Item
A beautifully rendered oil on canvas portrait depicting an elegant French lady of refinement and stature, executed in the Romantic tradition of mid-19th-century portraiture. The sitter is portrayed in a composed, three-quarter stance before a softly rendered garden backdrop, evoking both intimacy and quiet nobility.
She wears a dark gown with intricate lace detailing, complemented by an elegantly red shawl and a red/black feathered bonnet adorned with a crimson accent—a masterful study of contrast and texture. The painter’s sensitive handling of light and shadow captures both the sitter’s poise and the richness of her attire, while the subtle tonal transitions in the background lend depth and atmosphere to the composition.
Presented in an original period giltwood frame of exceptional quality, with fluted and laurel-leaf ornamentation, the painting embodies the grace and confidence of the 19th-century French bourgeois portrait tradition.

Signed Portrait of an Aristocratic Lady by English Victorian Artist Laurence Koe
By Laurence Koe
Located in Vancouver, British Columbia
A large and beautiful three quarter length portrait of a partly seated lady her hat over one arm holding a bouquet of flowers, the other arm held upward holding a branch of a tree. This original oil on canvas by the British artist Laurence Koe, (1863-1913), is signed on the lower right and dated 1905.
Lawrence E. Koe was a portrait painter and sculptor. He is listed as living in Brighton when he first exhibited at The Royal Academy in 1891, but by 1894 he had moved to London where he appears to have settled for the remainder of his life. Koe exhibited widely; over twenty times at The Royal Academy, but also at the R.O.I, The Royal Society of Artists in Birmingham and the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. Most of his exhibited works were portraits, and among his sitters were the wives of fellow artists Harold Speed RP (1872-1957) and Harold Piffard (fl. 1895-1899). In 1896 Koe exhibited “Venus and Tännhauser” at the Royal Academy, now in the permanent collection in the Brighton Museum and Art and he showed a painting of Sappho two years later. He clearly shows the influence of other artists working at the same time, notably Singer Sargent, Arthur Hacker RA (1858-1919) and Herbert James Draper...
