Winter afternoon, 1910. An intimate portrait of the painter Susan Isabel Dacre (1844-1933). Susan Isabel Dacre, sometimes called Aunt Susie?, was a friend and collaborator of Dodd. In the late 19th century she was very active in the womens suffrage movement. Subsequently Dodd and Dacre worked closely together, first in Manchester, then in London, between 1897 and 1911, when Dodd married. Dacre, who was considerably Dodds senior, greatly encouraged his career.
