Mixed Media - Tinted Photograph On Marbled Paper
Description
This photograhic portrait is of my wife's great-grandmother, Rose Henniker Heaton, nee Bennett, daughter of Samuel Bennett, proprietor of an Australian newspaper. Her husband, Sir John Henniker Heaton, was a Member of Parliament in the UK and became well-known for introducing the 'Universal Penny Post' so that this could enable all, including the poorest, to keep contact with their families who had emigrated around the world.
The image is a photograph tinted according to the style of the time - the beginning of the twentieth century - and was placed on a matte of my hand-made marbled paper for framing.
