Appleton, well-known for her charming book illustrations of children, painted watercolours from an early age. As a young woman she attended the Art branch of the South Kensington Schools, and then Frank Calderon's School of Animal Painting where she gained a scholarship. This was followed by a brief spell in the studio of Sir Arthur Cope, RA, after which she enrolled at the Royal Academy Schools in 1901. She loved her time at the Schools, and her sketch books from this time show influences of Mabel Lucie Attwell, Annie French, James McNeil Whistler, Anne Anderson and William Heath Robinson. In 1902 Honor's career as a book illustrator was launched, and over the next forty years she illustrated over 150 children's books. Honor is perhaps best known for her illustrations for Mrs. H.C. Cradock's "Josephine" series, in which she captures the innocence and spirit of her subject. Her earlier works have a more ethereal quality, and a delicacy of colour, which is seen to full effect in the three works offered here. (3)

Wyllie,1905), and our oil painting may also date from this time. shortly after his marriage in 1879, Wyllie had moved to live at Hoo Lodge near Rochester. He stayed there until 1906.
