Exhibited Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, 1998, number 25 (listed Not for Sale)
A quite amazing portrait of Anthony Lambton, Lord/Viscount Lambton, 1922 - 2006.
A most intriguing composition, as is often the case with such works by Carel; the father, stood in the background, watching four of his daughters and his son within one of the undoubted myriad of drawing rooms withing the family home.
Lord Lambton, who was to relinquish his peerage to enable him to sit in the House of Commons, was MP for Berwick-upon-Tweed from 1951 to 1973, resigning from government and as an MP following a "sex and drugs scandal".
