Elizabeth "Lizzie" Lawson (1867–1905?), renowned for her enchanting children's illustrations, was born in Dunfermline, Scotland. Her artistic talent was inherited from her father, John Lawson, a successful illustrator, painter, and sculptor. By 1881, Elizabeth was already established as a working artist in Chelsea, collaborating with her father on beloved children's books and annuals. In 1886, she married Robert Ellice Mack, a writer and editor who also partnered with her and her father on various publications. Later in the 1800s, she relocated to Scotland after her husband was assigned a position in Edinburgh with the renowned publisher Nelson's. Lawson's portfolio boasts over forty books depicting children in diverse settings, each rendered with a delightful innocence and carefree spirit.
