  Elizabeth Thompson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Elizabeth Thompson ( 3 November 1846 - 2 October 1933) was a British painter.
She was the daughter of Thomas James Thompson (1812–1881) and his second wife, Christiana Weller (1825–1910).
As the painting toured Europe, along with photographs of Elizabeth, she gained even more notoriety because people found out that she was both young and pretty, something normally not associated with painters of battle scenes.

 Two Different Views of War: Elizabeth Thompson (a.k.a. Lady Butler) and Anna Lea Merritt
Thompson, who hailed from an upper-class feminist family, is best known for her paintings of battle scenes.
During the early part of her career, Thompson’s images were based largely on second-hand information, as she lacked military connections within her circle of family and friends.
Despite the now downhill direction of her career and increasing domestic duties, Thompson (now known as Lady Butler) accompanied her husband to his military postings, allowing her to travel with her husband to such postings as Egypt and Syria and enabling her to produce drawings and paintings from first-hand experience.
