Description

For much of the Victorian era, girls were encouraged only to copy artwork, not to draw from life. Here, Ruth Sibley Gade (1878-1977), Emily Sibley Watson's niece, has created alternate illustrations for a published comic romance. In 1907, Ruth Sibley married John Gade; he would become the architect of the Memorial Art Gallery.
