It had been hoped the painting could be mounted in the Town Hall in Montgomery, but councillors have turned that down.
Town Crier, Susan Blower, said: "It is a heavy item 6’x4’ in size. Montgomery Town Hall would have been an ideal venue but permission had been denied. Is there any location within Montgomery area who feel able to host this wonderful portrait highlighting the wonderful craft of Portrait painting and the Ancient craft of Town Crying."
