Lillian Stannard
Lillian Stannard was a celebrated painter of English gardens and was exhibited widely, including at the Royal Academy and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour. She lived in Blackheath, London and had several one-man exhibitions of her work at the Mendoza Art Gallery. Viewing her exhibition there in 1906, the art critic of The Observer commented, "I defy any lover of an old-fashioned English garden to see these drawings without real delight. There is a peace, a repose, almost a fragrance about each and all of them."
