RARE JESSIE WILLCOX SMITH CREWEL EMBROIDERY KIT MAG COVER REPRODUCTION GOOD HOUSEKEEPING APRIL 1926

One of the greatest illustraters of the 19th century, Jessie Willcox Smith was born in Philadelphia in 1863. She had originally studied to be a kindergarten teacher and served in that capacity before accidentally discovering a talent for drawing. She quickly began formal courses at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts where she learned from Thomas Eakins, and others. She graduated in 1888 and began a long, distinguished career. Her earliest work appeared in the monthly magazine for children, St. Nicholas.
