Artwork Title: Miss B.S

Miss B.S, 1905

Beatrice Offor

…'Offor Heads' are known the world over. Indeed, it may well be said that Miss Beatrice Offor is one of the most popular artists of the day, her pictures are eagerly sought after, and publishers vie with one another for the honor of giving her works to the public. As to Miss Offor herself, all that need be said is that she is as charming as are her works. She is a most accomplished woman, a woman of many parts and a brilliant conversationalist. Her features remind one very forcibly of Ellen Terry, and one cannot help being attracted by her sympathetic personality. She is essentially a "homely" woman and an artist…. Miss Offor is an ideal subject for the interviewer; indeed, she interviews herself, so to speak, and it may be said that she interviews the interviewer. Her capabilities are such that she would have been a success in any walk of life... [https://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/newspapers/star/1907/9/07/3?large_image=true]
