Louisa Puller

Puller travelled widely throughout England during World War Two on behalf of Recording Britain, depicting the impact of war in at least nine different counties and was among the most prolific artists employed by the scheme.

For Recording Britain, Puller was sent at short notice to the village of Sudbourne in Suffolk, arriving just hours before it was appropriated for tank training by the British Army and the local population departed.

[1] The War Artists' Advisory Committee, WAAC, purchased two watercolours by Puller of bomb damage in the City of London.

[1][4] In 1913 she was living in Elsecar near Barnsley and in 1926 she designed a number of panels for an illustrated, limited edition book about Wilthamstow and Highham.

[5] In 1940 Puller had one work shown in a Royal Academy exhibition and appeared to be living in London at that time.
