Ethel Charlotte Chase Hatch (17 May 1869 – 3 April 1975) was a British artist known for her floral scenes and for her association with Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, more commonly known as Lewis Carroll.

[1] The family lived in a Gothic-style house built in 1867 on Banbury Road in Norham Gardens, North Oxford, England.

Other acquaintances in the neighbourhood who visited the Hatch family included Bonamy Price, Mark Pattison, and Benjamin Jowett.

[2] Ethel's father Edwin was a theologian; author; a vice-principal of St. Mary Hall, Oxford; and later a university reader in Ecclesiastical history.

[3] The Hatch family moved in "stimulating circles", including friendships with Edward Burne-Jones, Algernon Charles Swinburne and William Morris.

Ethel's family were of an upper middle class station and they subsequently became friends with Dodgson.

[10] Dodgson tried to make arrangements for Ethel to study under Sir Hubert von Herkomer, a British painter of German descent.

[11] At Slade, Ethel studied under Henry Tonks, Philip Wilson Steer, and Frederick Brown.

[20] On 20 September 1920, at age 51, Ethel was among the chief mourners at the funeral of William Sanday, Dean Ireland's Professor of Exegesis of Holy Scripture at Oxford between 1883 and 1895.
