I found this Pretty Lady at an auction yesterday in Gerald Mo.
it measures
14 inches wide x 17 inches high
i think its done in ink and watercolor & signed Abigail Sanborn
the board is marked Windsor & Newton
frame is pretty trashed can any one help me date her i cant find anything on the artist maybe she was an art student
any help putting a date on her?
well ive been doing alot of looking for the artist and found her living in st louis mo in 1910 on the census her occupation is artist [an illistrator for the globe democrat news paper]
she married another artist dean sidney smith in 1915 and and died in 1916 following an operation in new york where her husband had an art studio
shes buried in kansas city where her sister lived
so my mystery has been solved but ill still look for more info on my pretty lady
