About this person

Wedgwood first chose one of her designs in 1783, and his 1787 catalogue referred to her as having "exquisite taste" and "charming groups". Several of the designs Wedgwood used have a feminine or domestic theme. She also painted in watercolours and sculpted in clay. Of particular note were her sculptures of family, including grandchildren. A famous bust was made of her son-in-law the Marquess of Bristol.
