Madge Gill, Untitled Spirit Drawing
Madge Gill, Untitled Mediumistic Spirit Drawing, on blank postcard, 5 ½ x 3 ½ inches, *Includes provenance, Condition- Very Good+
Madge Gill (1882-1961) has become one of the most renowned individuals to create artwork by the assistance of a personal, invisible, otherworldly guide. In 1920, at the age of 37 she began to draw, attributed her work to a spirit named Myrninerest (my inner rest) and remained prolific until her son died in 1958. In recent years Gill and Myrninerest’s work has become more widely seen than ever before, through three printed monographs, and several major exhibitions including the William Morris Gallery in 2019, and the 2024 Venice Biennale.
