Violet Hilda Drummond (1911 - 2000)
The Tower of London
Watercolour
32 x 42 cm
Signed lower right.
Provenance: Arthur Anderson art collection; Deloitte art collection.
Drummond's father, a Scots Guard, was killed at Ypres in 1914. Drummond and her two sisters were brought up by her mother and educated in Eastbourne and at Le Chateau Vitry-sur-Seine, a Parisian finishing school. After Paris, Drummond attended St Martin’s School of Art.
Later in life, she began writing children’s picture books – the most notable being Miss Anna Truly (1945) and her Little Laura series (1960 onwards). She also produced cartoons for the BBC. 'Mrs Easter and the Stork' – published in 1957 by Faber & Faber – was awarded the Kate Greenway Medal. Drummond later took to painting watercolours of London street scenes which have remained popular ever since.
