The Red Kimono by M. A. Montford

Artwork

The red kimono

The mysterious woman in red. Nothing is known about the subject of this painting by M.A Montford. This painting in oil was acquired along with a number of others, within a Sir Claude Hotchin bequest, as part of a scheme to trigger the development of art collections in many Wheatbelt and South West towns. Perhaps one day, the identity of the mysterious woman in red will be uncovered.
