About Frances Hodgkins
Frances Hodgkins (1869–1947) stands as one of New Zealand’s most celebrated artists and a trailblazer in the modernist movement. Born in Dunedin, she began her artistic journey in the late 19th century, training at the Dunedin School of Art before venturing to Europe, where her career flourished. A teacher, traveler, and creator, Hodgkins gained recognition for her pioneering spirit, becoming the first New Zealander to exhibit with the prestigious London Group and the Seven and Five Society.

Hodgkins’ paintings were highly regarded during her lifetime and remain influential, with pieces showcased in esteemed collections worldwide.
Frances Hodgkins’ Painting Style
Hodgkins’ painting style evolved remarkably over her career, making her a key figure in the transition from late Victorian realism to modernist abstraction. Her early works often featured soft, atmospheric landscapes and portraits, rendered with delicate watercolors. However, as her career progressed, Hodgkins embraced bold experimentation.
Her mature style is marked by dynamic compositions, expressive use of color, and a synthesis of natural and abstract forms. She combined elements of Cubism, Fauvism, and Post-Impressionism to create a style uniquely her own. Themes of domesticity, landscapes, and still life are imbued with emotional depth and an innovative approach to texture and perspective.
