Helen Waddell (1889-
1965) was a close friend of
the artist and a celebrated
scholar and writer. She
was educated at Queen's,
Belfast, Oxford and Paris,
and for a number of years
worked for the publishing
house of Constable.
Waddell was born in
Tokyo where her father
was a Presbyterian
missionary and travelled
widely throughout her life.
Two depictions of Waddell
were shown at a joint
exhibition of Paul and
Grace Henry's work at the
Hugh Lane, Dublin 26

Both works were from the
collection of a Mollie
Martin and had been
previously exhibited at the

in 1939 and 'Portraits of
Great Men and Women',
Ulster Museum, 1965.
