Artist Jessie Currie

I have two water colour painting by Jessie Currie of Teffont Mill . Jessie Currie went on to illustrate for Raphael Tuck the producer of postcards in the 1900 . She also illustrated two children books -Sunshine and Flowers and Once upon a time . Published 1910 . Any information on Jessie Currie would help in my research . My two painting are of the front and rear view of Teffont Mill I feel they were painted in the early 1900 . It is over a hundred years ago maybe someone can shed some light on my mystery artist. Waiting in anticipation , Yours faithfully Philip wood .

I too have a print of "Can 'oo men' my dolly" by Jessie Currie. Original mount. Has anyone any knowledge of this painter?

RE: RE: Artist Jessie Currie

I have a sepia picture by Jessie Currie of a child with a broken doll being offered to the blacksmith for mending. It is located in a blacksmith's forge I cannot find anything helpful about this picture.

RE: RE: Artist Jessie Currie

I too have a large framed picture of the doll / blacksmith scene. It was given to a relative in the 1930's as a wedding present from her wealthy employer. It is protected by glass which was added later. I've never removed it from the glass so don't know whether it is an original or a print. I don't know anything about the artist other than the information published here regarding the artist. If anyone can shed any light on Jessie Currie I'd be very grateful.
