Summary
Oil painting on canvas, Tulips, Roses and other Flowers in a Porcelain Bowl, and Fruit, on a Ledge, French School, manner of Jean-Baptiste Monnoyer (1636 - 1699), circa 1700. (see also GRH/P/6 & 8).
Provenance
Unlike the other pictures at Grantham House, which appear to have been collected by the Sedgwicks (with the exception, obviously, of the portraits of General Sir Brian Wyldbore-Smith and his wife) these three pictures were most probably transferred by Anne Brownlow, Lady Cust (1694 - 1779), from Belton when she moved into Grantham House as her dower-house on the death of her husband in 1734, modernised it, and - no doubt - installed these as overdoors; given to the National Trust by the Misses Winifred and Marion Sedgwick in 1944-50
