This portrait is an example of one of the many that Violet Keene became famous for. She established and ran a studio in Toronto for her mother’s work from 1933, and later a studio for her own photography. She studied photography under her mother’s guidance from an early age, and this portrait has many of the classic Minna Keene attributes of her portraits taken in Cape Town around 1910, notably the floral background and position of the face looking away from the camera. Violet exhibited her work around the world and had a loyal following. [quoted from source]
