Artist
Mary Evelyn De Morgan
Mary Evelyn De Morgan is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Mary Evelyn De Morgan spent her days sketching in a cluttered London studio that smelled of turpentine and stale tea. She drew figures tangled in dreamlike scenes, their bodies stretched and twisted like melted wax. Look up The Undiscovered Country, a woman with a lantern floats above a sleeping crowd, her flame casting long shadows.
De Morgan belongs in Gallery Tiles because her drawings feel like private myths, ones you almost recognize but can’t quite place.
