A Scottish illustrator, designer, and painter, Jessie M. King was a leading figure of the Glasgow Style, part of the Art Nouveau movement. Renowned for her intricate line work, ethereal figures, and decorative motifs, she created illustrations that combined Celtic romanticism with elegance. 

King’s dreamlike imagery, often inspired by folklore and fairy tales, captured a world of fantasy and beauty. Celebrated internationally, she influenced later generations of illustrators and helped define the distinctive visual language of early 20th-century Scottish art.
