Lydia Shackleton (22 November 1828 – 10 November 1914) was an Irish botanical artist who studied at the Royal Dublin School of Art and Design. She was the first artist-in-residence at the Royal Botanic Gardens in Dublin, creating hundreds of botanic studies. She also taught, wrote verses, and travelled to the United States. == Life ==
Lydia Shackleton was born in Ballitore to George and Hannah (née Fisher) Shackleton in 1828. She was the third eldest of 13 children in this Quaker family. Her father was a miller and 18 years older than his wife.〔 Shackleton was educated at the Quaker school in her hometown〔 and went on to study at the Royal Dublin School of Art and Design (now called the National College of Art and Design). Her earliest surviving works are pencil drawings of Grisemount and Ballitore, dated 15 November 1848.〔 She shared her knowledge and skills with her younger brothers and sisters, and also later taught her nephews and nieces as well. The demands of being one of the eldest in the family, however, meant that she did not indulge her talents as much as she might. Shackleton's views were also more liberal than those of her parents; her disagreement with her mother's more traditional Quaker views led to irreconcilable differences. Following her studies at the Royal Dublin School of Art and Design, Shackleton moved to Lucan in County Dublin, where she opened a small school for Quaker children. She taught there for 20 years. She also spent two extended periods in America.
