Artists

[edit]

Per the article: "Their studio was constantly visited by Leighton, Millais, Prinsep, Watts, and others." I assume these are: Frederic Leighton, 1st Baron Leighton, John Everett Millais, & George Frederic Watts. If so, maybe these artists could be wiki-linked.

Charles Rae

[edit]

@Rcpenalosa:: Thanks for the link to Charles Rae, however I've reverted it. Although her uncle may well be Charles Joseph Rae, son of Emma Lydyard and her husband, Joseph Rae, there's no indication of what her paternal grandparents' names were (her father was Thomas Burbey Rae). Do you know of any direct evidence that Charles Rae and her uncle are one and the same? Charles Rae left for NZ in 1851(?). Henrietta Rae was born in 1879, and an elder sister received drawing materials from the uncle; that Fish doesn't comment that he'd emigrated suggests that he probably hadn't. (BTW you can use double bracketting to wikilink, eg [[Charles Rae]]) ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 12:09, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Normands???

[edit]

I think its mistaken to write "The Normands lived at..." Since its a big deal that Henrietta Rae kept her maiden name, the article mentions it but then refers to them always as "The Normands" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.217.107.240 (talk) 18:15, 20 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
