Biography
| Susanna Evelyn was the third daughter of the diarist, John Evelyn. She married William Draper of Adscomb in 1693. In Ralph Thoresby's Diary dated 1830, under 1701, he writes, "John Evelyn carried me to his son Draper's at the Temple, and showed me many curious pieces of his ingenious daughter's performance, both very small in miniature, and as large as the life in oil colours, equal, it is thought, to the greatest masters of the age." |
