The Hat Lady

I have come across a lovely old album that my mum brought in a charity shop about 25 years ago. It is dated from 1905, and is full of little extracts and messages from the owners friends. It also has a selection of paintings in it, done straight onto the page by several different artists, I guess as a gift to the owner. The one that caught my eye was the illustration of the lady in the huge hat! It is done in such a modern style and has been preserved perfectly! It is such a shame that this was not from the twenties, it would have been perfect for my research!
