Lizzie Caswall Smith

(1870-1958), Photographer

Artist associated with 263 portraits
Lizzie Caswall Smith specialised in theatre and society subjects in the early 1900s. She first exhibited at the Royal Photographic Society in 1902 and then again in 1913. From 1902-1920 she operated the Gainsborough Studio at 309 Oxford Street. She was likely trained by her brother, John Caswall Smith, who ran a studio at 305 Oxford Street until his death in 1902. Smith was a supporter of the suffrage movement and photographed many suffragettes including Christabel Pankhurst and Flora Drummond, images that were then made into postcards. As well as this, many Edwardian stage performers such as Lily Elsie, Billie Burke, Gertrude Elliott and the renowned 'Gibson Girl' Camille Clifford were photographed by Smith
