Apparently, when he was working in collaboraton with Sir Joshua Reynolds, the master painter was so impressed with one of Edridge's miniatures, that he insisted on purchasing it and paid him handsomely. Henry Edridge's works can be found in major musueums across Britain, including the Victoria & Albert Museum, National Portrait Gallery and the British Museum. Mounted in antique frames of gilt and brown wood. Dimensions: frame, 8.75"W x 0.9"D x 9.9"H; sight, approximately 6"W x 7.2"H. less
