The least known of the artists in the Wiles family of prominent New York artists, Rachel Wiles was married to Lemuel Wiles (1826-1905), and met her husband in a painting class taught by William Hart in Albany, New York. They married in 1854, and their son, Irving Wiles, was born in 1861. Later the son painted a portrait of his parents that now belongs to the Corcoran Gallery of Art.
As a young girl from Albany in 1849, under the name of A Rachel Ramsey, she exhibited a volume of paintings (showing 500 of 1332 characters). |
