The Honourable John Maler Collier OBE RP ROI (1850 1934) was a leading English artist, and author.
He painted in the Pre-Raphaelite style, and was one of the most prominent portrait painters of his generation. Both his marriages were to daughters of Thomas Henry Huxley. He studied painting at the Munich Academy where he enrolled on 14 April 1875 (Register: 3145) at the age of 25.
Colliers' Lady Godiva was bequeathed by social reformer, Thomas Hancock Nunn. When he died in 1937, the painting was offered to the Corporation of Hampstead. He specified in his will that should his bequest be refused by Hampstead (presumably on grounds of propriety) the painting was then to be offered to Coventry.
The painting now hangs in the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum. On the reverse is a faithful reproduction of Collier's Lady Godiva painting.Above and below are a series opf genuine Swarovski crystals. Struck into the silver is a background decor and inscriptions for the series name and year of issue.
