Evelyn Dunbar
Evelyn Dunbar (1906-1960) is best remembered as the only woman to be given salaried status as a full-time war artist in World War 2.

Dunbar produced several major works now principally held in the Imperial War Museum. However her post-war work, particularly her landscapes, have only recently received the accolades they deserve.
