Archival history
Abbot almost certainly sat for Gibson, as he undertook an extensive tour of France and Italy (1819-22). The bust passed to his son, the Second Baron (d.1867) and then to his grandson, the Third and last Baron, who died childless in 1912. His wife, Lady Isabel Maude left it to her nieces, Lady Eveline Maude and Lady Clementine Isabel Tottenham, who presented it to the School in March 1928.
