About this person
Edith Hayllar had four brothers and four sisters, of whom, Jessica Hayllar (1858-1940), Mary Hayllar (1863-1950), and Kate Hayllar, also became notable artists in their own right; all received their training from their father and exhibited at the Royal Academy. Together, residing in an estate in Wallingford, England, all four girls followed a Victorian system of four to ten art classes a day to ensure proper mastery of basic art techniques such as proportions. In addition to their rigorous training schedule, the girls spent the rest of their time at the estate engaging in relaxing activities such as outdoor sports, plain air painting, and gardening. These leisurely domestic scenes became the subject of the sisters’ most renowned paintings.
