About the piece

Painted circa 1916 by Harold Gilman, a leading figure of the Camden Town Group, this portrait of his landlady, Mrs. Mounter, is a celebrated example of British Post-Impressionism. The work is renowned for its thick, painterly texture and a striking color palette of saturated oranges, teals, and deep reds that transform a simple tea setting into a compelling modern composition.
