Winifred Marie Louise Austen (England, 1876 - 1964) "Brent Geese" Original etching. Pencil signed in lower margin. Image size: 8 x 11.5 in. Austen worked in both oils and watercolors but Austen is most highly regarded as an etcher. In all she made some two hundred etched plates, beginning in 1906 with a series entitled The White Heron. She had particular feeling for birds and small mammals, and the naturalist Sir Peter Scott said 'she was certainly the best bird-etcher of this century'. In 1902 Austen was elected to the Society of Women Artists followed in 1907 to the Royal Society of Painter-Etchers and Engravers, and in 1933 to the Royal Institute of Painters in Water Colours. She was also a fellow of the Royal Zoological Society from 1903. Condition issues to the outside margins.
