No one has done more to encourage art among women than Mrs. Louise Jopling-rowe, the well-known and exceedingly popular artist, whose pictures have not only been constantly exhibited at the Academy, but are also well known at the Paris Salon. Mrs. Jopling-rowe not only founded the School of Art in London, but has written a volume, " Hints to Amateurs," which is very valuable to students. And mention of this literary effort reminds one that she finds chief recreation in literary work - articles and stories. As a matter of fact, the publication of a short story when she was fifteen years of age was her first experience of fame. She is a beautiful as well as talented woman, and her portrait by the late Sir John Millais created almost as much sensation as his equally famous one of Mrs.langtry, " A Jersey Lily." Among the best-known pictures by the lady herself are " Auld Robin Gray," " Five O'clock Tea," and her portrait of Miss Ellen Terry. Mrs. Jopling-rowe is a native of Manchester, and married, when very young, Mr. Frank Romer, who afterwards became private secretary to Baron Rothschild. Her second husband was Mr. Joseph Jopling, of the War Office, winner of the Queen's Prize at Wimbledon, and himself a painter in water-colours. Her third husband, Mr. George W. Rowe, is a lawyer.
