Edward Henry Corbould: Three Legs of Man. The owner has advised that this small painting (dated 25 April 1896) was painted by EHC and given to James Cowle, a prominent architect on the Isle of Man at that time. It is thought by the Cowle family that EHC made the painting in (part?) return for architectural services. Several of EHC's daughters from his first marriage were educated on the Isle of Man - see Section VI p38 of The Corbould Genealogy.
