About Helen Mabel Trevor
Helen Mabel Trevor (1831–1900) was an Irish landscape and genre painter from Loughbrickland, County Down. Encouraged by her father, she began drawing early, with a home studio provided for her artistic pursuits. In the 1850s, she exhibited at the Royal Hibernian Academy. Following her father's death, she pursued formal art education at the Royal Academy Schools in London from 1877 to 1881. Trevor traveled extensively with her sister Rose, studying and painting in France and Italy. In Paris, she trained under artists like Carolus-Duran and exhibited at the Paris Salon, receiving an honorable mention in 1898. Her works often depicted rural life and children, rendered in a realistic style. Trevor passed away in Paris in 1900. Her legacy includes paintings housed in the National Gallery of Ireland.
