Description
German-born Jewish artist Margot Philips (1902 – 1988) began her artistic career only after her arrival in Kirikiriroa Hamilton in 1938. Enrolling in a series of adult art classes, Philips first experimented with landscape painting in the 1950s, rising in prominence as a landscape painter through the 1960s and 1970s.
Janet Paul invited Philips and other aspiring artists from Kirikiriroa Hamilton to meet for drawing sessions at the Pauls’ home. This rural scene showing trees and earthworks, may depict Janet and Blackwood Paul’s property.
On the reverse of this work is another rural scene in gouache depicting trees and a road.
