1822-1902 American painter of English birth. At the age of eight, she and her family emigrated to America, and after three years in New York they moved to Marietta, OH. In 1841 her father took her to Cincinnati, where she exhibited and received help from artists such as the animal painter James Henry Beard (1812-93). However, she refused the offer of the city's most important art patron, Nicholas Longworth, to assist in her art studies in Boston and Europe. Instead she stayed in Cincinnati and married an Englishman, Benjamin Spencer, by whom she had thirteen children, seven living to maturity.   Related Paintings of Lilly martin spencer :. | War Spirit at Home | Domestic Happiness | Kiss Me and You'll Kiss the 'Lasses | The Artist and Her Family on a Fourth of July Picnic | Kiss me and You-ll Kiss the Lasses |
