You will find below pictures side by side which will allow you to compare the print with the original work. It is most often a painting of Mrs. Lum, but it can also be an older work of another artist. You will also find several prints of the same drawing in different formats or with different colors. Finally I also put some prints from other artists like Elizabeth Keith or Lillian Miller who portrayed the same subjects, but in a very different way.
