Ames, Mrs (McKechnie Section 2)

See Section Three for main entry

In an advertisement in Aris' Birmingham Gazette, 19 September 1785, Mrs Ames quotes two prices for her profiles; 2s and 5s. As she further specifies that the cost of one of her glass profiles is five shillings, I would conjecture that the cheaper work was painted on paper. No example of her work has been identified, but see the entry on Miss Ames for a comment by Mayne which may refer to her.
