Last year, you kindly gave me permission to use your models and costumes as references for part of a pastel painting I was working on. The painting is finally finished, and I thought you might like to see a scan of the end result, which I have titled ‘Champion of Warwick’. I added a few more figures to my original design and I think they have made a nice colourful crowd and added to the atmosphere. I’ll be submitting the painting for the annual exhibition of the Society of Equestrian Artists at the Mall Galleries, London, in July, and will also be producing a limited edition of prints of the painting.

Many thanks for your kind help.

Mary Herbert
