Further Information & Condition Report


This beautiful watercolour painting by Edith Brearey Dawson (née Robinson) showcases her talent for capturing delicate purple flowers. Born in 1862 and passing in 1928, Edith was a British artist known for her exquisite artworks.

Edith's artistic journey began under the guidance of Albert Strange at the Scarborough School of Art. Her dedication to her craft led her to exhibit at prestigious venues such as the Royal Academy and the RBA between 1889 and 1893.

A descendant of a Quaker Schoolmaster, Edith's early life in Scarborough greatly influenced her artistic style. In 1893, she tied the knot with another artist, Nelson Ethelred Dawson. The couple later relocated to London, where Edith shifted her focus from painting to creating stunning pieces of metal and enamel work.

This piece not only reflects Edith's talent but also encapsulates a significant period in her artistic evolution. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of art with such a rich history. Visit Duggleby Auctioneers to bid on this exquisite watercolour by Edith Brearey Dawson.
