I went in search this morning of my Ramsey & Muspratt photographs and discovered in my filing cabinet a cache of photographs which I inherited when my mother died and which look very much as if they came from her bottom drawer. Apart from a photograph of me as Lady Macbeth, I did discover a photograph of my grandfather which, from the inscription on the back, looks as if it was sent out in his memory after his death. Is it by Lettice Ramsey ? I don’t have a good enough sense of their style to know for sure. Looks like it was shot in natural daylight, but it’s definitely a studio photograph and would have been taken in Cambridge. Incredibly sharp focus on the eyes and tie:-
i was hoping we’d see the photo of you as Lady Macbeth
We would very much like to see the photograph of Lady Macbeth
Yes, you might. Charles
