  • Artist (Draughtsman)
Emmeline Emily Parker was a sketcher and poet. She married Henry Watson Parker who was Premier of New South Wales from 1856-57. Her mother opposed to her decision to marry Henry as she considered him 'bad-tempered, penurious, and narrow-minded'. Parker's album, no longer holds any of her drawings but some of the remaining captions suggest she may have had drawing lessons from Conrad Martens.
