Born in Edgbaston, the daughter of a draper, Mrs Ethel Solomon (née Cohen, 1888–1985), went on to become a highly influential figure as Chair of the Women’s Federation of British Zionists (1920) and as co-founder with her husband of Whittinghame Farm School, founded in 1939 to educate German and Austrian refugee children.

The portrait also relates specifically to his later series of single-figure works including
