Post by: Tal on Sunday 15 January 12 12:26 GMT (UK)
Does anyone know details of, or is related to, an artist who painted English landscape watercolours around 1900-1910 and signed his/her paintings L E Bates?

Hi,

Can you give us anymore clues?  Where was he/she from?

To answer Copperbeech5:  sorry, don't know where he/she was from.  Good artist, must be remembered as such by living descendants, painted harvest scenes.

Hi Charlotte,

I did try g****ling the name but as yet have had no joy.  Also tried Royal Academy site, V&A and Tate - well sometimes these things show up, but sadly not as yet!

Best wishes,
