This artist is best known for her graphic work and skill in portraiture. Lithographs like these are very rare.
She studied in Berlin under Robert Erdmann and Ferdinand Spiegel and was a senior lecturer at the Michaelis School of Fine Art in Cape Town where she taught etching and lithography. . Illustrated a large number of Afrikaans books and magazines.
Esme Berman writes:
"Her works, like herself, were unpretentious; their strength was in the absolute command of the medium and in her psychological penetration of the nature of the subject - be it portrait-study or book-illustration".
