Footnote
Note: Blanche Vulliamy studied portrait painting in London in the late 1880s before moving to Torquay to live with her grandparents. Here she became involved with Aller Vale Art Pottery and other potteries in Barnstaple. She became known for her creation of ceramic goblins and other grotesques and by 1897 was producing her own pottery, supplying items to Liberty & Co. in London.
