Amelia Christina Rusden

  • Artist (Draughtsman)
Although her work is held in the National Library of Australia, Rusden is still remembered for briefly catching the eye of Houston Mitchell. His words: 'As for the Misses Rusden I am done with them long ago' seem to be immortalised above that of her work.
