Noel Laura Nisbet was an English oil and watercolour artist, who painted figures, landscape, fantasy and romantic scenes. She created some wonderful original Pre-Raphaelite-influenced works which are now much sought-after.
Noel attended the Notre Dame Convent school in Clapham, then studied art at South Kensington, where she won three gold medals and the Princess of Wales Scholarship.
In 1910 Noel married Harry Bush, who she had met as a fellow art student. They went on to have two daughters and lived at 19 Queensland Avenue, in Merton Park, Wimbledon, SW19.
Nisbet illustrated five books of fairy tales and legends. She exhibited her work at the major galleries, including the Royal Academy, the Royal Institute and the Walker Art Gallery, Liverpool. Nisbet was elected as a Member of the Royal Institute of Watercolour Painters in 1926 and the British Watercolour Society in 1945.
Noel developed her distinctive decorative style, romantic, filled with detail and colour. She has been called the last of the Pre-Raphaelites. She and Harry lived out their days in their comfortable house in Merton Park with their daughters Hazel and Janet. Their studio collection was the subject of a major sale at Christies in 1984.
Today, Noel Nisbets’ work is held in major collections, including The Newport Museum and Art Gallery, The Victoria & Albert (her piece entitled Carnival Fantasy), and the Russell- Cotes Gallery in Bournemouth.

This beautiful original watercolor by Noel Nisbet is entitled “Such Young Love”. It depicts two young people, clearly in love and is believed to be a self-portrait of the artist herself and her husband, Harry Bush. The work is in the Arts and Crafts style, in warm rich colours and evokes a sense of fruitful, mellow abundance. The couple are dressed in simple country clothing; she is wearing a flowing blue dress and has bare feet; he is wearing brown dungarees over a blue shirt, with a brown jacket over, and brown leather shoes. They are sitting together on a wooden style, with a blanket of wildflowers at their feet. In the background we glimpse a church, a few cottages and a stone bridge. Above them is a grassy mound upon which are trees, abundant with pink blossom. The couple are turned towards each other, he has his arm around her back and is holding a small blue book, as if her has been reading to her. This is overall a most charming scene, one of young love and devotion, of simple pleasures, of health, happiness and promise.
