Her story is one of female power and achievement in a time when this was not the norm, it is also a story of love and loss. This exhibition follows Emma’s life from rags to riches and back again. It is a collection of over 200 fascinating objects and paintings that tell her story, remembering her for her strengths and achievements and not just for those of the men in her life.
