Edna Stubbs Cathell (1867 - 1955)

The daughter of Richmond Mayor, Lewis Stubbs, Mrs. Cathell made her career painting patented roses for the Joseph H. Hill Company. Her early training began with her mother who was a leader in the early art movement in Richmond and an accomplished china painter and miniaturist. She studied art at the Cummings School of Art in Des Moines, Iowa after graduating from Earlham College. She had lessons in design from Dr. Denman Ross of Harvard University as well as lessons from Richmond Group artists, including John E. Bundy, John King and Randolph Coates.
