Marguerite Kirmse was born in Bournemouth,
England in 1885 and died in America in 1954. She lived in New York City
and spent summers at a house in Bridgewater, Connecticut. She was a
pupil of Frank Calderon and she specialized in drawing and etching dogs
of all breeds, shapes and sizes. In each of her etchings she captured
and portrayed the individual personalities of the dogs she loved so
much, and she drew them all with great charm and humor.
The following is a representative collection of
her original etchings, any one of which would look handsome framed.
