Gladys Wynne

Gladys Wynne (1876 – 24 March 1968) was an Irish water colour artist, who spent most of her life in Glendalough, County Wicklow, living in Lake Cottage. Landscape was her chosen field and she painted the area throughout her career.

She was the fourth daughter of George Robert Wynne [cite web | title=Gladys Wynne, watercolour artist | work=Parsons Family and Friends | url=http://www.parsonsfamily.co.uk/wynne/gladyswynne.php | accessdate=2008-07-11] , Archdeacon of Aghadoe, Killarney, County Kerry [Church of Ireland Gazette, February 12, 1904] and his wife Ellen Lees (Nell) nee Smith.

She exhibited with the Watercolour Society of Ireland, who include her in their collection [ [http://www.ul.ie/visualarts/wsci_html.html University of Limerick Visual Arts] ] among 28 "well-known Irish artists". Apart from the Glendalough area, other subjects, all in Ireland, were the Bog of Allen, the County Dublin coast, and County Donegal. Her work has been sold at auction including by Christie's London (on May 15, 2003).
