Emily Mary Osborn (1828–1925), or Osborne, was an English painter of the Victorian era.〔Charlotte Yeldham, ''Women Artists in Nineteenth-Century France and England'', New York, Garland, 1984.〕〔Nancy Heller, ''Women Artists: An Illustrated History'', New York, Abbeville, 1987.〕 She was best known for her pictures of children and her genre paintings, especially on themes of women in distress. ==Early life== Emily Osborn was born in Essex, the eldest of nine children of the Rev. Edward Osborn and his wife Mary,who took up the curacy of West Tilbury under its rector Edward Linzee during the spring of 1834, when Emily was about 5. The family occupied the parsonage at the top of Gun Hill, which is pictured in a lithograph of 1845 by D. Walton. Osborn lived for some 8 years at the parsonage, though she afterwards recalled that her "early surroundings ... were not such as to develope artistic proclivities, there being but little natural beauty in the country around West Tilbury ...".〔''The Lady'' journal, 2 September 1886〕 There, her mother encouraged her "and watched with pride the clever portraits Emily drew of her brothers and sisters". The parent herself possessed a great love of painting and had, on her own account, "wished in vain to study Art professionally". The same article speaks of experimentation at this period, how the teenage girl, not always being able to obtain the paints she desired "devised a plan of making an extra supply of colours from flowers, by putting the petals into bottles with a little spirits of wine".
