There are a few women in the world in whom pure loveliness, goodness and brilliance are combined and Ruby Lind was one of them.
C.E.W. Bean, The Sydney Morning Herald, 25 January 1938

This catalogue, published by the Douglas Stewart Fine Books, was produced in 2010. An appreciation of Ruby's work is included by Robert Littlewood. It is illustrated from her earliest works in c.1904 when she was 19 until her death in 1919 at age 33, just eight days shy of her 34th birthday. Ruby died from the Spanish Influyenza pandemic when she was living in England, having sailed from Australia in October 1909 with her husband Will Dyson.

Ruby Lindsay also worked under the name of Ruby Lind and was a fine illustrator submitting works for many magazines such as The Lone Hand, The Bulletin, The Hawklet and Steele Rudd's Magazine to name a few.
