<p>[QUOTE="P. Arthur, post: 87403, member: 1208"]Hi, Kathleen was my Grandmother, and although not as well known as her husband, Arthur, for her photography, she was arguably equally as skilled. After his death in 1955 she continued the gallery and studio in Nairobi that they had started, and mastered handcolouring his prints. She continued her own photography and I would say this would be definitely one of hers. She also trained other people to handcolour the prints, and Linda Monaco, who now has many of the still existing prints, did many of these.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
