Page from 1901 The Tatler Magazine of Sir John Lavery's Portrait of Mrs Cora Urquhart Brown-Potter
Scanned, cleaned and enhanced.
Some color added
Background changed to egg-yolk yellow tint
Final rendition lacking most of Lavery's brush strokes with darkened area near bottom to direct attention on Cora's profile. Red hair and blue ostrich feathers and pearls reinterpreted. No color photo of original was found so this may look entirely different from original portrait which is probably part of a private collection somewhere.
