FOSTER, EDWARD WARD. Born in Derby 1761, died 1864. Described on his trade label as from London. In 1811 he was at Mr. Abbott’s, Trimmer, Friar Gate. Most of Foster’s work is in sanguine reddish colour, painted on card. There is often a minute diaper pattern of stars on the dresses of women and children; occasionally greens and blue tints greatly enhance the beauty of his silhouettes. His signature is rare. Occasionally it is found written minutely, as on the portrait of the Countess of Blessington in the collection at Knole, Sevenoaks. His name is occasionally embossed in the brass ornamental ring of the papier-mâché frame. FOWLER. On signed portrait of George III., with minute writing forming ornamental lines. FRANÇOIS.
