Christabel Cockerell

Christabel Annie Cockerell, Lady Frampton (baptized 21 October 1864[1] – 18 March 1951[2])[3] was a British painter of children, portraits and landscapes.

[citation needed] She was born in 1863, daughter of George Russell Cockerell of London,[3] and trained at the Royal Academy Schools from 1882, where she met her future husband, the sculptor George Frampton.

[4] They married in April 1893[3] and their son, Meredith Frampton was born on 17 March 1894.

Her husband was knighted in 1908[3] and in 1910 they moved to a new house designed by him[7] at 90 Carlton Hill, St John's Wood, London,[8] which included a studio for each of them.

[8] Cockerell modelled occasionally for her husband: his Mother and Child shows her with their infant son Meredith, and was exhibited at the 1897 Venice Biennale and the Paris Exposition Universelle in 1900.
