In addition to photography, Lambert was also an amateur maker of musical instruments, specialising in harpsichords and clavichords. Violet Kate Eglinton Gordon- Woodhouse (1872 - 1948), was a British harpsichordist, clavichordist, and pianist. Violet first met Osbert Sitwell at one of the Sunday afternoon recitals she gave at her home in Ovingdon Square, London, during the First World War. She became a close family friend, and all three Sitwells stayed with her at Nether Lypiatt, her home in Gloucestershire, and visited her in Mount Street, Mayfair. Violet later studied with Agustin Rubio, Spanish cellist and music teacher to Pablo Casals. Sacheverell and Osbert Sitwell both wrote that they had only known two women of genius, one was their sister Edith, the other was Violet Gordon-Woodhouse.

Mrs. Viva King (1893-1978), was referred to by Osbert Sitwell as both 'the Queen of Bohemia' and 'the Scarlet Woman'.

Original silver bromide print portrait photograph of Larken by Walter Stone, [1934], faded, in folding case (poor condition) with similar portrait opposite (probably his wife)Qty: (10)NOTESProvenance: By direct descent to the present owner. Admiral Sir Frank Larken KCB CMG (1875-1953) entered the Royal Navy in 1889. On the declaration of war in August 1914 he took command of light cruiser HMS Doris in the eastern Mediterranean, with instructions to launch amphibious raids on Turkish positions along the Syrian coast. His demolition of the railway at Alexandretta in December 1918 forced the Turks into negotiations by which they agreed to destroy their own railway engines and stores, under British supervision, a somewhat farcical event which was key to Churchill's appraisal of Turkish military capability and his decision to launch the Gallipoli campaign, during which the Doris provided support for the Anzac landings. Larken later commanded battleship HMS Valiant (1922-4), was promoted rear-admiral in 1924, vice-admiral in 1929, and admiral in 1933.
