| Description | Susan (Dorothy's niece) sits with one elbow on the table supporting her head, chin in hand. In her other hand she holds a spoon which hovers just above the bowl of soup on the table in front of her. Her body more or less faces the viewer but her head is turned slightly to her left and and she is looking at something even further to her left and out of view. | |

| Title | Family Portrait | |
| Type of work | Painting | |
| Description | A family portrait consisting of husband, wife and six children. The wife wears a black dress and sits on a red settee with one child on her knee and two more on either side. The husband also wears black (bar the white pinstripe on his trousers) and sits on a separate chair, with its back facing the viewer. This allows him to rest his arms on the back of the chair while simultaneously cradling the youngest child, still a baby. The wife appears to be trying to look directly at the viewer, but is distracted, perhaps by the restless children all around her. The husband, by contrast, looks relaxed, and makes no effort to look at the viewer. Instead, he looks over the family group to his right with a rather pleased, and possibly supportive, expression on his face. | |
