The cartoon is at Henfield Museum, the back shows Kensington address.
On the other side of the window is another Opus Sectile memorial plaque concerning Frederick George Masters. They are identical and we presume it is her husband.
It is thought to be by Glasby but research is needed to confirm this. We do not have a sketch for this, and neither does Henfield.
