  Jenyns Corsets were unique products used for surgical and hygienic purposes. This was one of the oldest fashion lines running in Queensland. Many women were happy wearing it.

  Woman with wild flowers

• Annette Cadell said:

  The waratah flowers framing the photo are the State floral emblem of New South Wales. She appears to be holding a white rose though her favourite flowers were waterlillies. She had no formal training but worked conscientiously in water-colour. She combined water-colour techniques with opaque paints which she used to illustrate details. She was artistic in her design and her drawings were not considered scientific.
