		Over the years, Madame Yevonde continued to photograph commercially; in 1964, at the age of 71 she was commissioned to photograph the country of Ethiopia.

		After the death of Madame Yevonde in December 1975, her work continued to feature in the occasional exhibition such as 'Modern British Photography', organised by the Arts Council of Great Britain in 1981.
