Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Art and the Formation of Taste: Six Lectures
In 1857 the family left Torquay and took up their abode in the western suburbs of London, where in 1859 Thomas Crane, the father, died.
From an early age Lucy Crane showed considerable taste and skill in drawing and colouring. Circumstances, however, turned her attention to general educational work, the field of her labours being confined to a few private families, where her high qualities were known and appreciated. Perhaps the best tribute to her success is the fact that some of her most attached and valued friends in after life had been her early pupils.
