Newspaper Seller & painter - female


Recommended Posts

I definitely remember her selling newspapers on Long Row with her unique, eccentric way of pronouncing 'Evening Post'; and I remember seeing her pavement art but I don't think I realised it was the same person.

 

I didn't know anything of her personal life, or what kind of person she was; but everything I've read here fits with what I saw.

She was very gentle, but obviously saw the insult to her partner as an attack. She'd have been better off in Paris, where she'd have probably become an artist's or writer's muse like Nusch or Nadja.
