Elizabeth Thompson

Elizabeth Southerden Thompson (3 November 1846 – 2 October 1933), later known as Lady Butler, was a British painter who specialised in painting scenes from British military campaigns and battles, including the Crimean War and the Napoleonic Wars. Her notable works include ''The Roll Call'' (purchased by Queen Victoria), ''The Defence of Rorke's Drift'', and ''Scotland Forever!'' (showing the Scots Greys at Waterloo). She wrote about her military paintings in an autobiography published in 1922: "I never painted for the glory of war, but to portray its pathos and heroism."

She married British Army officer William Butler, becoming Lady Butler after he was knighted. Provided by Wikipedia
