Catherine Maude Nichols: Making her Mark
Catherine Maude Nichols (1847-1923) was born in Norwich and lived all her life in the city. A prolific and gifted artist, she was able to sustain a successful professional career - unusual for a woman of the time - and deserves to be better known today. This exhibition showcases a range of Nichols' work, with a particular focus on her drypoint etchings, but also displaying watercolours and drawings. Detailed evocations of Norwich views sit alongside atmospheric, at times brooding, images of Norfolk's reed beds and meadows, while scenes from her travels include watercolours of Cornish cliffs and prints of a Chateau near Fontainebleau and Bristol's suspension bridge. Drawing on Norwich Castle's collection of 135 paintings, watercolours, drawings and prints by the artist, Catherine Maude Nichols: Making her Mark is a wonderful opportunity to discover the work of this talented artist who was determined to live life on her own terms.
