A citation to the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic's own online object record for its accessioned painting, read directly. Its strength is that the museum holds this portrait in its own permanent collection and catalogues it with an accession number, artist, medium, dimensions and donation history. Its limit is that the record is a brief catalogue entry rather than an extended discussion of the painting or its subject.
