EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the elegant bond between artist Olive Snell, known as Mrs Lecky Pike, and her young daughter in 1918. Olive Snell was a renowned portraitist whose works graced the pages of prestigious British publications such as The Tatler and The Bystander throughout the first half of the 20th century. Her distinctive style, characterized by crayon and color techniques, brought the society beauties of her day to vibrant life. Mrs Lecky Pike's artistic talent was discovered early in her life, and she quickly gained recognition for her ability to capture the essence of her subjects. Her portraits were not only admired for their aesthetic appeal but also for their ability to convey the personality and spirit of the individuals she depicted. In this heartwarming image, mother and daughter share a tender moment, their connection palpable through the gentle gaze and loving smile exchanged between them. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the profound influence that a mother's love and support can have on her child's artistic development. As Olive Snell continued to create masterpieces that captured the hearts and minds of the public, this portrait of her and her daughter stands as a testament to the enduring bond between a mother and her child, as well as the remarkable legacy of an artist whose works remain cherished pieces of historical significance.
