Portrait of Frances Hodgkins, Cedric Morris, Oil on Canvas, 1928 (Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki)
She arrived in London in the spring of 1901 at the age of 32. By June she was sketching in Normandy before decamping to Paris and Italy. Hodgkins became an incessant traveler including within England and the British Empire, among the Low Countries, around the Mediterranean as well France on the Continent, and eventually The United Stares; who embraced “en plein air” sketching and painting.
As World WR I consumed continental Europe, Hodgkins settled in the village of St.Ives, Cornwall, having given up on a studio in Kensington which she had leased but found cold and cramped. She leased it to Cedric Morris and his friend Lett-Haines. They were the first of numerous English artists drawn into her circle. Ten years later Morris would paint the portrait of Hodgkins posted here. A year earlier Morris had introduced Hodgkins to Ben Nicholson, an abstract artist who had assumed the leadership of the Seven & Five Society of avant-garde artists in 1926, and began frequenting St.Ives in Cornwall in 1928.
Hodgkins would join other preeminent artists like Winifred Nicholson, Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore in the Seven & Five Society. She exhibited her work in the Society’s 10th and 11th exhibitions and with the Society in their 1932 showing at the Leicester Gallery in London.
In 1938 her only lithograph, “An Arrangement of Jugs,” was produced and published by the Curwen Press of Plainfield, East London along with images done by Duncan Grant, Vanessa Bell, and John Piper. Kenneth Clarke, Director of the National Gallery in London had her exhibit at the British Pavilion of the 1939 NEw York World’s Fair, and subsequently she was invited to show at the 22nd Venice Biennale alongside Duncan Grant, Edward Wadsworth, Frank Dobson, Glyn Philpot, and Alfred Munnings.
In November of 1946, six months before her death, 64 of Hodgkins’ paintings and 17 drawings were shown in a critically acclaimed retrospective at the Lefevre Gallery. Francis Hodgkins passed away in May of 1947.
