Elizabeth Southerden Thompson, Lady Butler (3 November 1846 - 2 October 1933) was a British painter, who specialised in painting scenes from British military campaigns and battles, including the Crimean War and the Napoleonic Wars. The Roll Call (purchased by Queen Victoria), The Defence of Rorke's Drift, and Scotland Forever!, showing the Scots Greys at Waterloo (Leeds Art Gallery), are among her notable works. She wrote about her military paintings in an autobiography published in 1922: "I never painted for the glory of war, but to portray its pathos and heroism". (Source: Wikipedia)
