  Lady Chatterly's Lover? Lovely portrait, typical of the high standard of Lafayette!

• Niall McAuley said:

  Here he is in the 1911 census, at 67 a professor of literature at the University of Dublin. Likewise in 1901 at 57, which looks to me about his age in the photo today.

• Niall McAuley said:

  Judging by his wikipedia bio he would like to be pictured reading Shakespeare, but I am sure it is a studio prop.

• Niall McAuley said:

  Hmm, maybe nearer the end of the range than 1901, here is an 1895 portrait in which his hair and beard are not yet white.

• Niall McAuley said:

  There is apparently a Walter Osborne portrait of him over the way in the National Gallery collection.
