Edith Collier Monday Mural

 A mural for Monday Murals by



I recently travelled to the North Island of New Zealand. In the first place to reunite with my daughter and her little family. My brother from the Netherlands came with us and we showed him some more of our beautiful country. One of the places we went to was Whanganui where I saw the mural above

The mural is Edith Collier (1885-1964) by the artist Pat Perry.
Edith grew up in Whanganui She was a painter Underneath some of her work

  7. A beautiful mural, dear Marja! I had to check the NZ map to see where Whanganui is, but I'm afraid that's too far from our route... Of course I really hope to see some of these works of art in Christchurch...
    Did I already wish you a Happy New Year? However: I wish you and everyone you love a happy, healthy and peaceful 2024 🍄🍀!
    All the best, Traude
