Don.. Looking at this one enlarged it appears as though there are two figures in the picture, not a landscape, and the frame also, looks different. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------- David Riddle eMail: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------- On 22 Oct 2014, at 19:54, DONALD JAKEWAY <[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) > wrote: David: Here is a copy of the mirror over the fireplace.

One item that we have drawn an almost complete blank on is the large painting of Blenheim Palace that hangs above the fireplace in WSC's Study. We have photographs of the Study that indicate this painting was not always present in this location, but that there was a vey large mirror there instead. One recent suggestion is that the painting was loaned to Sir Winston by Jack Churchill, his brother, just before WWII, but that Jack died in 1947 and the painting was never returned to his family. There is also no recored information about the artist in the present Room Guide for Volunteers other than that it is said to be probably 'English School'. Does anyone in this Group happen to have any information to add to this story? Many thanks in advance.
