Emmeline Halse

She was a frequent exhibitor of such works at both the Royal Academy and in Paris during the late nineteenth century.

[3][4] Halse continued her education in Paris at the École des Beaux-Arts and was taught by Frédéric-Louis-Désiré Bogino.

[2][5] During her career Halse created portrait busts, reliefs and life-size marble statues as well as smaller pieces such as wax figures, medallions and terracotta tiles.

[3][6] She regularly showed works in Paris, at the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, in Manchester, Glasgow and also in London, including at least 33 pieces at the Royal Academy between 1878 and 1920.

[8] Both of her parents died with a few months of each other in the winter of 1895 to 1896 and Halse sculpted their headstone for a cemetery in Kensington.
