Excerpt from Anne Seymour Damer: A Woman of Art and Fashion, 1748-1828 Anne seymour conway, or as she is better known, Anne Seymour Damer, has more than ordinary claims to live in History; during her long and eventful life, she was the centre of a circle in which rank, wealth, fashion and science were all gathered together. She was not only the friend of artistic and literary people, but was a sculptor of no mean repute, and, although she has left no literary record, she was a well read woman, a student of Herodotus, Pliny, and Virgil, and possessed one of the finest libraries in London. Her life is a pleasant one to look back on. Irreproachable in moral character, she was of a fascinating and amiable disposition showing an exemplary patience during the short period of her unhappy married life. From the date of her husband's tragic death, her life seems to have been unclouded by any troubles except the death of her beloved parents.
