English, 1846–1901
Kate Greenaway (1846–1901) was an English artist and writer recognized for her illustrations in children's books during the Victorian era. She studied art and graphic design at several London schools between 1858 and 1871. Greenaway began her career designing Christmas and Valentine's cards, and her 1879 book "Under the Window" became an immediate success, establishing her distinctive style of depicting children in imagined 18th-century dress. Her work, often produced in collaboration with printer Edmund Evans, was widely imitated in England, Germany, and the United States.
