(Editor's Note, I told Paul about a painting of Elizabeth Asquith  by (I think) William Orpen that was sold at Sothebys (I think) this May 2004 and asked if he saw it)

I know the Orpen and have a black and white image of it but I'd love to see it in colour if you know what sale it was in - maybe they had an illustrated catalog. I'm sending  an image of another Augustus John oil he did of her in 1919 (it's in the Laing Gallery, Newcastle-upon-Tyne). Thanks for the information on the Orpen, I'd like to contact the new owners.
