| biography:
| Artist, born in Dunedin, New Zealand. She studied there, and travelled extensively in Europe with long visits to Paris and England. Her paintings, examples of which are in the Tate Gallery and the Victoria and Albert Museum, are characterized by a harmonious use of flat colour, somewhat reminiscent of Matisse. Though older than most of her circle, she was ranked as a leader of contemporary Romanticism. |
