She was the first female war photographer for the Imperial War Museum and documented the work of women in France and Belgium in the aftermath of World War I. Florence Hardy remarked about this portrait: "No photograph could be more natural or give a better idea of how he looked as he sat at work in his study" (See FISHERMEN & KINGS, THE PHOTOGRAPHY OF OLIVE EDIS by Alistair Murphy and Elizabeth Elmore. Norfolk Museums Service, 2017).
