Florence M. Gill Watercolour Girl In A Kimono
We are offering for sale this beautifully executed watercolour of a young woman in her bedroom, by the artist Florence M. J. Gill, who has signed the painting in the lower right hand corner. The painting depicts a pretty young woman, with her hair parted in the centre and pulled back softly over her ears, and wearing bunches of artificial flowers on each side, sitting in an American rocking chair, with a wistful expression on her face and her cheek resting on her clapsed hands. She is wearing a Japanese kimono, with embroidered flowers and matching underdress, with the neck and wide sleeves bound in peach satin. Her fan is on the ground near the chair, The footboard of her brass bedstead is just behind her.
We are also listing the companion piece to this painting, which is slightly smaller, but similarly mounted and framed and which also has an oriental influence.
Florence M. J. Gill was born in 1870 in New Ferry, Cheshire, the daughter of an Irish born H. M. Customs clerk. She appears in the 1871, 1881 and 1891 censuses living with her parents and her brother Arthur and her occupation is listed as Government Art Teacher, so one presumes that she has been at a Government back Art School for training. However, by the 1901 census, she is visiting her newly married brother in Watford and they are both listed as artists. She is not listed in the English and Welsh census for 1911, but she may have been in Scotland, as she exhibited from an address in Milngavie, Glasgow in 1912. Neither her birth, nor her death appear to have been registered and we obtained her birth year from the census records.
She exhibited between 1894 and 1926, 17 at the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, 1 at the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour and 2 at the Glasgow Institution. She exhibited from various parts of the UK, including London in 1894, Liverpool in 1898, 1899 and 1902, Watford 1901, Milngavie in 1912 and Newcastle on Tyne in 1920. As we could find no listing for her in the 1939 Register, we presume that she died some time after 1926 and before 1939.
The painting is mounted with washlines and is framed in a 1 1/4" ornate swept gilt frame. It will be supplied wired and ready to hang.
Provenance: With the Marble Hill Gallery, Twickenham at a figure of £550.
Image size: 18 7/8" x 12 1/2" - 47.9cm x 31.25cm
Frame size: 27 1/2" x 20" - 69.2cm x 50.8cxm
Medium: Watercolour on paper
Condition: Very good, with no foxing or fading. The mount and frame are in very good condition.
