A new book by Lucy Davies about Mabel Nicholson has just been published by Eiderdown Books, As they say on a blog post, "Extracting Mabel from the shadow of the men in her life, and piecing together who she was in order to give an account of her own artistic achievements, has been no easy task". Yet she was "a free-spirited young girl, an adventurous and well-travelled woman", part of "a glittering bohemian circle and one of the most significantly overlooked talents of early 20th century British art". This is a portrait of Mabel (1897, National Galleries of Scotland) by William Nicholson.
