We have spent some time troubling over the reverse, which we think reads “Mr A Page Near(?) School, Bampton”. From the tan line around his forehead, he appears to be a gentleman who has spent a considerable amount of time outdoors whilst wearing a hat. We had originally thought this was the portrait of a schoolmaster and his wife, but are now not so sure. If you have any comments or suggestions as to the identity of Mr Page, please let us know below.
