Description
English: Alice, Countess of Shipbrook

The sitter was Alice, daughter and co-heiress of Samuel Ibbetson of Denton Park, Yorkshire. She married the English politician, Francis Vernon (1715-1783), who was created Earl of Shipbrook in 1777. A pastel of their son, Francis (1752-1760), by Cotes is in the Frick Collection, New York. A half-length version of the present portrait, within a painted oval, was sold at Christie's London, 16 July 1998, lot 11.

This portrait once belonged to William Goadby Loew (1876-1955), a prominent New York stockbroker and society figure. He and his wife, Mrs. Florence Baker Loew, built one of the last (1932) and most elegant mansions in the Carnegie Hill neighborhood of New York at 56 East Ninety-Third Street (now part of The Spence School). Upon Mr. Loew's death in 1955 this portrait, which hung in his New York residence, was sold at auction through Parke-Bernet Galleries (see Provenance).
