Miss POSTLETHWAITE

Miss POSTLETHWAITE
fl 1889-1903-4

This artist could be one of two artist sisters, listed as Elinor (b1866) and Mary Emily (exh 1882-1903), born in Cumberland, who studied art in London but exhibited widely in the provinces (See Johnson & Greutzner for some detail of the two).  

Wood's entry for Elinor suggests that it is most likely to have been this artist, as she made coloured woodcuts, after studies at Calderon's and at Westminster, and exhibiting four works at the RA (1889-1903).  She exhibited and sold a Print at NAG in 1903 and another in 1904. Addresses in South Devon and London are listed for her.
