Charles Spencelayh - A Questionable Vintage

Charles Spencelayh (Rochester, Kent, October 27, 1865 – June 25, 1958) was an English genre painter and portratist in the Academic style. Many of his subjects were of domestic scenes, painted with an almost photographic detail. Spencelayh was a favourite of Queen Mary, who was an avid collector of his work. In 1924 he painted a miniature of King George V for the Queen's dolls house.
