About the Item
Wind Flowers in a Tzu Chow Vase, 1933, oil on canvas board, signed and dated lower right, 20 x 16 inches, label verso with title and original price ($185.00), exhibited 44th Annual Exhibition, National Association of Women Painters and Sculptors, American Fine Arts Building, New York, NY, January 2 – 24, 1935, no. 162
Ethelyn Cosby Stewart was a painter, printmaker, designer, and craftsperson. Born in Arlington, New Jersey, Stewart was active in New York where she studied at The Cooper Union and with W. E. Cox and Emil Carlsen. She designed textiles and other decorative arts before joining the staff of a New York gallery devoted to ancient and modern art and fine lighting. Her etchings were well regarded, and she invented a process for copper plate printing on soft materials including textiles which could be used for lamp shades. For several years, the National Academy of Design invited Stewart to exhibit her work in the institution’s print room. During the 1920’s, Stewart’s batik work became highly sought after and celebrated. She was a member of the National Association of Women Artists and exhibited in their New York exhibitions. Stewart’s paintings, including Wind Flowers in a Tzu Chow Vase, were often influenced by Asian aesthetics and contained Chinese and Japanese subject matter. Examples of Stewart’s work can are in many United States museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Academy of Design, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, and the Smithsonian Institution. The collections of the latter two institutions contain oils very similar to the present work. Moreover, Wind Flowers in a Tzu Chow Vase is housed in a period frame which bears a label for another Stewart painting titled Magnolias, which is in the collection of the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Her oil paintings were sufficiently popular during the 1930s that some were photo-mechanically reproduced as inexpensive decorator prints. She is listed in Who was Who in American Art and other standard references.

Leonard Raven-Hill (1867-1942)
Still Life of Flowers II
Oil on canvas
24 x 19 cm
In a handsome frame.
Signed lower left 'L RavenHill'.
A handsome oil painting of a still life of flowers by well-listed painter Leonard Raven-Hill, who has works in the Tate, British Museum, National Portrait Gallery and other famous collections. We have another painting by the same artist listed.
Leonard Raven-Hill (10 March 1867 – 31 March 1942) was an English artist, illustrator, and cartoonist.
He was born in Bath and educated at Bristol Grammar School and the Devon county school. He studied art at the Lambeth School of Art and then in Paris under MM. Bougereau and Aimé Morot. He began to exhibit at the Salon in 1887 but moved back to London when he was appointed as the art editor of Pick-Me-Up. He also continued to work as a painter and exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1889. In 1893 he founded, with Arnold Golsworthy, the humorous and artistic monthly The Butterfly (1893–94, revived in 1899–1900) but began his most prominent association with a publication when his drawings appeared in Punch in December 1895. By 1901 he had joined the staff of Punch as the junior political cartoonist.
He contributed to many other illustrated magazines including The Daily Graphic, Daily Chronicle, The Strand Magazine, The Sketch, Pall Mall Gazette and Windsor Magazine. He also illustrated a number of books including
· East London by Sir Walter Besant (1901)
· Cornish Saints and Sinners by J. H. Harris
· Three Men on the Bummel by Jerome K. Jerome
· Stalky and Co by Rudyard Kipling
· Kipps by H. G. Wells
