Florence Susan Harrison (1877–1955) was an Australian illustrator of poetry and children's books in Art Nouveau and Pre-Raphaelite styles. Many of her books were published by Blackie and Son. She illustrated books by Pre-Raphaelite circle poets Christina Rossetti, William Morris and Sir Alfred Tennyson.
Harrison has often been confused with Emma Florence Harrison, an English artist who exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1887.[1][2][3]
