Eleanor CHARLESWORTH
Her family, the Charlesworths, were related to Augusta LINDNER and were good patrons of Moffatt LINDNER's work. She studied at the Slade and lived at Holland Park. It is not known of any permanent address in the St Ives area, but she has paintings with local titles and did exhibit in the town.
She often accompanied Arthur James Weatherall BURGESS and his artist wife, Muriel BURGESS on holidays. The Alps featured strongly in her works, and a portrait of her by William Lee Hankey was exhibited at the RA in 1932.
