Blanche Georgiana Vulliamy

[5] At the census on 5 April 1891 she was recorded as a 22-year-old art student living at Alexandra House, Kensington Gore.

[2] Also known as the Alexandra House for Art Pupils, this had been founded in 1887 by Sir Francis Cook, a fabulously rich great-uncle of Maud Gonne, and one of her contemporaries there was Constance Gore-Booth.

"[11] She was also an occasional author, and in 1909 her Give Heed, a modern morality play, was performed at the Court Theatre by students of the Guildhall School of Music, the characters in it being Satan, Conscience, Youth (played by Daisy Burrell), Thoughtless Soul, Fashion, Modern Rush, Frivolity, Poverty, Sickness, Sorrow (Evelyn Roberts), Loneliness, Middle-Age, Dame Nature, and Kennel Maid.

[12][13] During the play, a Model T Ford appeared on stage, picked up Modern Rush and Excitement, and drove away up some steps.

[15] The Christchurch Mansion at Ipswich has exhibited its collection of seventy-seven pastels by Vulliamy, showing First World War searchlights flaring through urban streets at night.
