Amy COLLIER

Amy COLLIER
1855

Daughter of Arthur Bevan COLLIER, born in Scotland and living at Lezant, Cornwall in 1881 (Census).  Wood gives this as Callington, Cornwall in 1874, when she exhibited a picture of a dead magpie at SS.  In 1881 she exhibited at the Society of Women Artists (according to Johnson & Greutzner), and Whybrow notices her presence in St Ives during the 1883-1900 period.
