Study for Girl in a Lace Collar ; Raymond McIntyre; c.1913; 2024.005

Shared by
New Zealand Portrait Gallery Te Pūkenga Whakaata

McIntyre met actor Phyllis Constance Cavendish in London, and she became the subject for over a dozen of his portraits in oil and watercolour. Writing to his father in November 1912, he states: “Miss Cavendish has a very refined interesting pale face - and I have done some very good work from her - paintings and drawings. And she is so conscientious and sits so well - she is quite a find.” Then, in October 1913 he explains that “Really, I have invented her type. Though all the things I do are like her - yet it is the particular points about her which interest me I accentuate - and bring out - and I leave the parts that do not help.”
