Mark Senior (Staithes Group 1864-1927): The Ives Family, on the Edge of the Tennis Court, oil on canvas signed 126cm x 151cm Provenance: direct from the family of the artist, formerly in the collection of Mrs M.V. Hudson, the artist's daughter; exh. 'Mark Senior 1862-1927', Elizabethan Exhibition Gallery, Wakefield, 16th April - 2nd July 1983, no. 8. Notes: the Ives family owned a Leeds worsted manufacturing firm. In 1914 Senior exhibited a portrait of Miss Gladys Ives in the National Portrait Society's annual exhibition. Notes: sold together with a copy of a photograph of the artist painting the present lot. In the photograph, two of the young girls are wearing hats, which do not appear in the finished work. Reputedly, the girls' mother, who commissioned the painting, did not like that they obscured the girls' faces and had Senior remove them. Tennis was a favoured subject Senior, alongside other British Impressionists such as Sir John Lavery; his 'The Tennis Player', sold Christie's 15th July 2021 Lot 140, set the record auction price for the artist.
