Who is the lady in the T.C. Steele portrait over the sideboard in the front hall?

May Wright Sewall (b. 1844), owner of the Girls Classical School, writer, and

Lecturer, “played a significant role in the cultural and social life of the capital

city.” In addition to founding the Propylaeum Club she “enriched the city’s in-

tellectual life through her efforts to form…the Indianapolis Women’s Club, the

Art Association of Indianapolis (forerunner of the Indianapolis Museum of Art),

the Contemporary Club, the Ramabai Circle (a group working to aid women in

India), and the Alliance Francaise.” Her efforts on behalf of women’s suffrage

Made her “an invaluable ally to …Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady

Stanton.”
