Ella Du Cane
Ella Du Cane (1874-1943) was a British artist best known for her watercolors of landscapes and exotic locales.
==Early life==
Ella Mary Du Cane was the third and youngest daughter of politician and colonial administrator Sir Charles Du Cane and his wife, Georgiana Susan Copley. Through her mother, she was the great-granddaughter of the artist, John Singleton Copley. She was born in Hobart, Tasmania in the last year of her father's five-year term as Governor of Tasmania, shortly before the family returned to their country house at Braxted Park, Essex.〔(Alison Redfoot, ''Victorian Watercolorist Ella Mary Du Cane: A study in resistance and compliance of gender stereotypes, the professional art world, Orientalism, and the interpretation of Japanese gardens for British society''. MA thesis, California State University at Long Beach, 2011. 12. )〕 In Essex, Charles was made a Knight Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George and served as Chairman of the Board of Customs.〔(Gordon Rimmer, 'Du Cane, Sir Charles (1825–1889)', Australian Dictionary of Biography, National Centre of Biography, Australian National University, accessed 29 September 2012. )〕
Her sister Florence was born in 1869. Ella made watercolor paintings and Florence was a writer. After their father died in 1889 they decided that they would travel the world unchaperoned. They visited China, Japan, Egypt, the Canary Islands and Madeira.〔Mark Griffiths. ''(The Lotus Quest: In Search of the Sacred Flower )''. St. Martin's Press; 6 July 2010.
