Jemima Blackburn
Jemima Wedderburn Blackburn was a Scottish painter whose work gives us an evocative picture of rural life in 19thcentury Scotland. One of the most popular illustrators in Victorian Britain, she illustratedbooks. Her greatest ornithological achievement was the second edition of her Birds from Nature . Most of the illustrations are watercolors, with early paintings often including some ink work. A few are collages, in which she cut out a birds outline and transferred it to a different background, in a similar manner to John James Audubon. Her many watercolours show daily family life in the late 19thcentury Scottish Highlands as well as fantasy scenes from childrens fables. She achieved widespread recognition under the initials JB or her married name Mrs Hugh Blackburn.
