FRANCES HODGKINS
Sir,-Does P, D’E. Hodgkins, replying to Margaret Frankel, make the mistake of exalting the undoubted charm of his sister’s earlier work above the sterner achievement of her maturity? If im saying it would be unjust to her to exhibit certain of her work, he means works characteristic of her great last period, then he sets at nought the culmination, the goal of the artist’s development, the realisation of her: whole lifetime’s effort. (The mood is magnificent.) I, as a member of her public, welcome any "injustice" I may be subjected to in, seeing any of Frances Hodgkins’s work at all, most especially if it be occasioned bv the work of her maturity.
