Thanks for looking About the artist Probably the best-known twentieth-century woman artist of Charleston. The daughter of a rice-broker, she received her early education in Charleston and Columbia SC. Her artistic ability already apparent at the age of 14 (the year she sold her first painting), she received encouragement from Alice Ravenel Huger Smith, the Charleston artist. Verner enrolled at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1903, studying for 2 years before returning to Charleston. Soon after her return, she married and raised a family of 2 children while painting scenes of Charleston in her spare time. In 1923, shortly after completing her first etching, she helped to organize the Charleston Society of Etchers. When her husband died in 1925, she turned to her art as a means of supporting herself and her family, and became a prolific pastellist and printmaker. She is widely collected around the world. The correct name of the print is "Annie". See question
