A clipping titled “JOHN BROWN’S DOG”
An oil painting of charity commisioner John Brown’s Russian terrier, on exhibition at the Rembrandt art store, in the Arcade, is attracting much attention. The painting is by Miss Edith Edwards of this city, and is a fine piece of work. Miss Edwards is a student of Artist Torrey, and is a talented young woman, of much promise in her chosen field.
Her latest effort is pronounced a most excellent piece of work. Commissioner Brown values the painting as highly as the terrier itself, and at the requet of a New York artist has consented that the painting should be shown at a coming exhibition of amateur artist in the metropolis.
Edith was born 04 Dec 1878 and was the sister to Louis R. Edwards.
