Summer by Frances Hodgkins

Fine Art Print

As beautifully described by the DPAG ‘Hodgkins painted this work in France, yet it captures the heat and brilliance of the perfect New Zealand summer. Frances’s rapid brushstrokes whirl across the paper, brilliantly capturing scattered patches of intense sunlight which filter through the leaves and across the little group: a woman and a girl lost in admiration of the delicious, plump baby-ness of the baby – at this moment the still centre of their world.’
