Violet Hilda Drummond Art

1911-2000

Violet Hilda Drummond was born in London. Drummond's father was killed at Ypres in 1914 whilst fighting with the Scots Guards. Brought up by her mother and her two sisters, she was educated in a private boarding school in Eastbourne and at Le château de Vitry-sur-Seine, a Parisian finishing school. Drummond lived in India and studied briefly at St Martin's School of art. She returned to London after she got married and started writing and illustrating children’s picture books. The most notable among them was Miss Anna Truly in 1945 and her Little Laura series from 1960 onwards. She also produced cartoons for the BBC. Mrs Easter and the Stork published in 1957 by Faber & Faber was awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal. Tiring of writing children’s books, she took to painting watercolors of London street scenes which she sold in galleries in London and which have remained popular ever since.

Edouard Dufeu (1836-1900) A Fantastic scene by a lake, signed drawing
By Edouard-Jacques Dufeu
Located in Paris, FR
Edouard Dufeu (1836-1900) A Fantastic scene by a lake Charcoal on paper Signed lower right 23 x 30,5 cm Framed under glass : 42.5 x 51 cm This fantastic scene, the subject of which remains a mystery, reveals an aspect of Edouard Dufeu's personality in which he is more influenced by Romanticism. We can recognise his nervous, painterly style, which lends itself particularly well to this fantastic scene. Edouard Jacques Dufeu was born in Marseilles on 27 march 1836, and he died in Grasse on December 1 , 1900. He was a French painter and engraver . Coming from a family originally from Egypt, Dufeu moved to Paris in 1860 and frequented the studio of Charles Gleyre...
