Subject: Dolman frames
The Guildhall Art Gallery in London is preparing an exhibition of works by Sir John Gilbert (1817-1897). The majority of his works in our collection are still in their original composition frames, with labels on the reverse identifying their manufacturer as R Dolman and Son, 6 New Compton Street, Soho. I would be very interested to hear of any other examples of frames manufactured by Dolmans, especially on paintings by Gilbert.
