I wonder if anyone can help me? I am trying to locate the family of the artist Robert Mallett (1867-1950). I have seen your postings in this website and thought that you may be able to help me. I am the Editor of a series of catalogues called
Oil Paintings in Public Ownership and we are currently working on our Norfolk volume (our project involves cataloguing all oil paintings held in public ownership in the UK on a county by county basis, (Norfolk will be our 10th catalogue - please visit
www.thepcf.org.uk for further information). At Norwich Castle Museum there is a painting by Robert Mallett
In a Wood, Taverham and I would like to obtain copyright permission from the artist's family so that we can reproduce the artist's paintings in our catalogues. Would anyone happen to know who the copyright holder for this artist's work is? I would be very grateful for any leads that anyone may be able to provide.
We are an Arts Charity and are based at the National Gallery, London. All of the proceeds we gain from catalogue sales go towards painting restoration and gallery education.
Should you have any further questions, please do let me know. Thank you in advance for evryone's help.
With best wishes,
