    Georgina or Edwina Lara (fl. 1862-1871)

    A painter of farmyard and rural scenes, her work often contains large numbers of small, doll like figures. For a short period she was thought to be called George Lara. Edwina Lara is thought to be the same person.

  • Biography from Roseberys

    Georgina Lara was also known as Edwina Lara, variously signing her works 'E Lara' and 'G Lara'.

    Lara's output consists almost exclusively of bustling village scenes, occupied by rustic figures, and clearly heavily inspired by the work of 16th- and 17th-century Dutch artists, such as Pieter Bruegel the Elder (c.1525/30-1569) and Jan Steen (1626-1679).
