Marian Emma Chase

Marian Emma Chase (1844–1905) was a British painter, water colour artist and draftsperson.

His first wife, Mary Ann Rix, had been a water colour artist, had died in 1840.

[1] Chase went to school in Richmond and was taught by her father as well as by Margaret Gillies.

[2] In early life she devoted a good deal of time to illuminating, but it was as a painter in water-colour of flowers, fruit, and still-life that she made her mark, by virtue of her truthful colouring and delicate treatment.

She painted in the same medium interiors, a few landscapes, and, towards the close of her life, studies of flower-gardens; in her figure subjects she was less successful.
