Description: | CRE WHISTLER, Beatrix; (English; 1857-1896) Many of Beatrix Whistler's portrait sketches are of family and friends, who were easily accessible and compliant models. The portraits range from quick pen sketches to delicate, considered pencil drawings.
Cecil Constant Philip Lawson (1880-1955?) was the son of Beatrix Whistler's sister Constance (1854-1929) and the painter Cecil Gordon Lawson (1851-1882). Cecil Lawson Junior became a Captain in the army, and also wrote and illustrated books on military uniforms and naval ballads. He followed in the family tradition, exhibiting paintings at the International Society, the Royal Academy and the Glasgow Institute of Fine Arts between 1913 and 1923.
