Parrish Sisters

Grace Parrish

Williamina Parrish (September 9, 1879 – January 3, 1941) and Grace Parrish (August 21, 1881 – March 9, 1954) were respected photographers who worked together as The Parrish Sisters at the beginning of the twentieth century.

Williamina "Will" Parrish was considered the leader of The Potters, a group of late teens/early twenties female artists publishing, from 1904 to 1907, The Potter's Wheel, a monthly artistic and literary magazine. She was also the editor of the magazine.[1] The name The Potter's Wheel was inspired by the facing pair of potters made by Caroline Risque which appeared in the inaugural November 1904 magazine.[2]

Grace Parrish, Will's younger sister, was also a very successful photographer. She was also a model and a violinist.[1]
