Summary
An oil painting on canvas of Maria Augusta (Lukin) Windham, Viscountess Ennismore and Listowel, later Countess of Listowel (1805-1871). It is by George Clint, ARA (London 1770 – Kensington 1854). The painting is an oval showing a bust-length portrait of a young woman wearing black, with a white linen collar and a gold chain. She is turned to her left, gazing at the viewer, in front of a landscape. It was painted in 1824, the year that her father, the Admiral, changed his name from Lukin to Windham, and two years before she married George Wyndham of Cromer Hall.
