with a few words of text "with king regards, believe me, yours very truly...", 4" x 2", no place, no date Jessie M. King began training as an art teacher in 1891 at Queen Margaret College (Glasgow). In 1892 she entered the Glasgow School of Art. As a student, she received a number of awards, including her first silver medal from the National Competition, South Kensington (1898). She was made Tutor in Book Decoration and Design at Glasgow School of Art in 1899 and she was influenced by the Art Nouveau of the period, and her works correspond in mood with those of The Glasgow Four. The Four were the painter and glass artist Margaret MacDonald, acclaimed architect Charles Rennie Mackintosh (MacDonald's husband), MacDonald's sister Frances and Herbert MacNair.
