Isabel Lewis Edwardian Seated Girl Reading
An original c.1900s graphite drawing, Isabel Lewis, Edwardian Seated Girl Reading.
A beautiful Edwardian figure sketch in graphite by the interesting Royal Doulton artist Isabel Lewis (fl.c.1870s–1920s). Lewis studied at Lambeth School of Art along with her sister, Florence E. Lewis, after which they found successful employment decorating Royal Doulton pottery. From 1898 onwards they relocated to Croydon to focus on their art, travelling, sketching and painting. This drawing appears to date from this period.
This is one of a collection of pictures by Isabel Lewis that we have for sale, which shows the artist working at the beginning of the 20th century in a style that bridges Impressionism and Post-impressionism.
There is an additional graphite drawing on the verso.
