Note du spécialiste

In her 1876 work English Female Artists, Ellen Crayton recorded that "Mrs Rayner was distinguished in early life for her beautiful engravings on black marble". Her engravings today are rare, examples can be found at Buxton art gallery, Chatsworth house, and another sold July 13th this year at Halls (£3400).
