Image description

manner of Thomas Barker (Pontypool 1769-Bath 1847). Oil painting on panel, 'Poor Kate', a Sketch, in the manner of Thomas Barker (Pontypool 1769- Bath 1847), 19th century. A full length figure is seated on a rock, wrapped in a green cloak looking towards the right and crestfallen. The frame is inscribed with the words: 'Who knows what wants the poor assail? / Who knows how little prayers avail / Then pity me! - poor KATE!' The character is probably 'Crazy Kate' from the 1785 poem, The Task, Book 1: The Sofa by William Cowper (1731 - 1800). Kate was a village girl whose sailor fiancé died at sea, leaving her to wander alone, go mad, 'and dream of transports she was not to know'. Stourhead, Wiltshire (Accredited Museum)
