ANNE ANDERSON

Anne Anderson
(1874—1940s?)


A prolific illustrator, Anne Anderson’s delicate work exhibits a fluidity typical of the Art Nouveau movement. Over One hundred books to her credit has insured that most children in that era have enjoyed her work.Childhood & Professional Career
Anderson was a Scottish artist born in 1874, then spent her childhood days in Argentina. 
 In 1912, she married a painter, Alan Wright and they settled in Berkshire. Wright had a successful career in illustration prior to 1898 when he illustrated a story for Baron Corvo. The story and Corvo were highly criticized in the press, and because of his association with the story, Wright’s commissions dried up until he married Anderson. They collaborated on many books together—he would draw the animals and birds and she would draw everything else.  It has been said that it is difficult to distinguish his work from hers. But mostly, he dedicated himself to providing her with an environment  conducive to her work. 
In addition to her illustration, she was also an etcher, watercolor painter and designer of greeting cards.
Influences & Style 
Her work has been compared to her contemporaries, Charles Robinson, Jessie M. King and Mabel Lucie Attwell. Her illustrations, both in black and white and in color, are decorative and lightly drawn or painted and show neatly dressed children with pear-shaped faces.
Raison d’Être
Although her illustrations were popular, her success can be attributed to her need to work hard and earn a decent income. With over 100 books to her credit, she was the financial supporter of the family, her husband only contributing occasionally.

Anne Anderson (1874—26 May 1952) was a prolific Scottish illustrator, primarily known for her art nouveau children'sBOOKillustrations, although she also painted, etched and designed greeting cards. Her style of painting was influenced by her contemporaries, Charles Robinson, and Jessie Marion King, and was similar to that of her husband, Alan Wright (1864-1859).



Born in Scotland in 1874 to James and Grace Anderson, Annie "Anne" Anderson and her siblings—four brothers and one sister, Grace—spent their childhood in Argentina.[2] On reaching adulthood, Annie and Grace returned to England to find work. By 1910, Annie could afford to buy a cottage in Berkshire.
She married the artist Alan Wright in June 1912[3] at Burghfield Common Parish Church in Berkshire, and they lived in the cottage she had purchased two years earlier. Though they collaborated on many projects, Anne was considered the driving force. Her husband had had a successful career as an illustrator until working on a book for the vilified homosexual Baron Corvo in 1898.


While some sources list Annie's death in 1930,[6] other sources say she died in 1936,[7] and still others indicate she was still alive after World War II.[2]
There is, however, an entry on 29 May 1952 in the Berkshire Burial Index for a married artist named Annie Wright, aged 76, who had resided in Burghfield Common.[8] Given that there is an entry in the same Burial Index on 17 July 1959 for a widower named Alan Wright, aged 94, who also had resided in Burghfield Common,[1] it lends more credence to her death taking place on 26 May 1952
