Biography of Edward Reginald Frampton 1870-1923

In 1870 Edward Reginald Frampton was born.

1912. Edward Reginald Frampton (age 42). "Isabella and the Pot of Basil".

Around 1913. Edward Reginald Frampton (age 43). "A Madonna of Brittany".

Around 1915. Edward Reginald Frampton (age 45). "La Madonna di Promessa" i.e. "Our Lady of Promise". According to Vallance the tower in Our Lady of Promise is 'a fairly literal rendering of the south-west tower of Rouen Cathedral, universally known as the 'Tour de Beurre' because it was erected either with 'the proceeds of market dues on the sale of butter' or with 'the money paid for indulgences to eat butter during Lent'. He might also have observed that the compositions of both pictures are indebted to Jan van Eyck's well-known drawing of St Barbara in the Museum at Antwerp. In this the Saint is seen seated in front of a Gothic tower that is being built to serve as the prison in which she is to be incarcerated by her father to protect her from the attention of importunate suitors.

1920 to 1922. Edward Reginald Frampton (age 50). "A Pearl".

Around 1920. Edward Reginald Frampton (age 50). "Brittany: 1914".

1920. Edward Reginald Frampton (age 50). "Elaine, the Lady of Shallott".
