Anyone with an idea?





This wonderful painting is in an old (January 2004) edition of Country Life in the background to Sabine (then 19), the daughter of Mr and Mrs Philip Hook. Doesn't say anything about who the family are or I would write to them. Just love the painting.

    I would imagine she's probably the daughter of the Philip Hook who is (or was) the Impressionist and Modern Art director at Sotheby's.
