The setting appears to be a French interior. Weber is possibly painting
whilst travelling in the South of France, her bedroom turned into an
impromptu studio.
Painter in oil and graphic designer. She exhibited extensively at the RA, the Society of Women Painters and the NEAC. She worked for Southern Region Railways as a poster designer and illustrator (see S.P.B. Mills, Hills of the South, 1939). In spite of her obvious ability, as yet surprisingly little is known about her.
