  2. I've some of her work. She was an early woman student at the RA schools and earned her living from art, although mostly as an illustrator. Kind regards Peter Harkness

  3. We have a print of Hartington in Derbyshire, signed by Nelly Erichsen, but not dated. Do you know where I might find the original or what date it is. I am told it might come from a travel book.

  5. Nelly did the illustrations for a book called Highways and Byways in Derbyshire,published c 1905 so I expect your print came from that?
