My husband was born in Kent and lived in a house near Moat Park. His family used to go
there on occasion and there was a painting.of exotic birds on the wall, which he found he
he very much liked to look as a child. In his thirties, we moved to Bath and went to a house there, where this painting appeared again, which he thought pretty extraordinary.
When my husband was in his sixties, we moved to Guernsey - and, in a local auction
room, this same painting turned up fo sale, with it's Kent and Bath provenance.
