Florence Anne Claxton (fl. 1840 – 1879) was an English artist and humorist, most notable for her satire on the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Claxton also wrote and illustrated many humorous commentaries on contemporary life.〔Delia Gaze, ed., ''Dictionary of Women Artists'', London, Taylor & Francis, 1997; p. 404-6.〕 ==Life== Little is known of Claxton's life; even her birth and death dates are uncertain. Her father, painter Marshall Claxton, trained his daughters, Florence and Adelaide, in his craft; Florence travelled with her father to Australia, India, and Egypt in the years from 1850 to 1857, while he searched for employment. In the later 1850s both sisters found work in the production of engravings for the popular press. In 1860, Florence illustrated ''Married Off: A Satirical Poem'', by "H. B." In 1858 Florence exhibited her painting ''Scenes from the Life of a Female Artist'' in the second annual show of the Society of Women Artists. In the following year, 1859, she signed a petition advocating the admission of women to the Royal Academy Schools, and exhibited her ''Scenes of Life of an Old Maid'' in the Society of Women Artists show.
