King was one of the Glasgow Girls and an important member of the Kirkcudbright Artists' Colony, which thrived between about 1850, with the emergence of the Faed family of artists in Gatehouse of Fleet, and ended with the death, in 1949, of King, who, with her husband E. A. Taylor, had settled in Kirkcudbright in 1920. The town, within Dumfries and Galloway, attracted many of Scotland's leading artists, among them E. A. Hornel, William Mouncey, William Stewart MacGeorge, Charles Oppenheimer, and S. J. Peploe. many of whom were fictionalized in Little Esson, a 1907 novel by S. R. Crockett. N. B.
