Author talk:Charles Edwin Dawson

Identification
Designer in London. From the Library of Congress page "a young man, known for his posters and, less so, for his oil paintings and water colors" (in 1903). Possibly also the London photographer of this name (1873–1935). Poster by Charles E. Dawson shown here. See also this lithograph.

Later teaching art by correspondence. Charles Matthews (talk) 06:51, 2 September 2016 (UTC)
 * In case you were after some researched detail. I am now hunting whether Esther Wood the writer of works is author:Esther Jane Wood nee Walker. — billinghurst  sDrewth  13:11, 3 February 2020 (UTC)

I'd expect all the works on Author:Esther Wood, Author:Esther Jane Wood and the Online Books page, with some others, to turn out to be by the same person. There is Esther Wood but the initial idea that this is the sister of Mary Anne Everett Green, daughter of Rev. Robert Wood, can't be correct. I'm not going to jump to conclusions here.

There is a 1907 newspaper reference in The Clarion tying Mrs. Esther Woods the socialist to the 1907 work on bookplates by Dawson - "with a fragrant foreword by Mrs. Esther Wood". (British Newspaper Archive, Friday 07 June 1907, Newspaper: Clarion.) So that's the first of the works from the Online Books page. Charles Matthews (talk) 05:50, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
