Description |
The drawing depicts the interior of St. Etienne du Mont showing the stained glass windows and curving staircase.. Colors are shades of blue, tan, red and yellow. This is one of several hundred small sketches done by Marjorie Lyon. As a child Marjorie took painting lessons one summer with Mrs. Lulu Pratt, and another with Hannah Drury, both of Bristol. One of her earliest watercolors was done in 1897 when she was 13. Another watercolor dates to around 1900 when she was 16 years old. Marjorie's love of painting blossomed in her late 60's after her husband, George Lyon, died. |
