Tween the Gleamin and the Mirk, When the Kye come Hame

Mary Nimmo Moran was an American landscape printmaker, specializing in etchings. Referred to by Mark Spanner on the Arte website as "perhaps the first woman to prove marriage and family were not insurmountable to success." She was the first of many landscape artists and in 1880 she was known as a landscape etcher. She completed roughly 70 landscape etchings, which included scenes of England and Scotland, as well as Long Island, New York; New Jersey, Florida, and Pennsylvania. In 1881, she was one of eight Americans and the first female elected as a fellow to London's Royal Society of Painter-Etchers. Mary Nimmo Moran's landscape View of Newark from the Meadows is in the collection of The Newark Museum of Art. She was among the earliest American Artists to explore the medium of etching.
