40 New Eleanor Fortescue Brickdales added to ARC
February 15, 2013
 | We would like to announce that we have reworked the Eleanor Fortescue Brickdale Gallery, adding over 40 new images by this famous female artist and illustrator, many in high resolution. |
| In 1902, she had the honor of becoming the first female member of the Institute of Painters in Oils and she illustrated many books such as Poems by Tennyson, 1905, W.M. Canton, Story of St. Elizabeth of Hungry, 1912, and Calthorp, A Diary of an 18th Century Garden, 1926, to name a few. Her works are always styled in the manner of the Pre-Raphaelites such as Dante Gabriel Rossetti or William Holman Hunt, using vibrant jewel like colors and representative 19th century subject matter.
