Arts and Crafts Studio : Mary Mansfield

Advertising leaflet for the arts and crafts studio of Mary Mansfield, Strand Arcade, Sydney, circa 1930, with fees for individual instruction in stencilling, raffia work, Indian basket work, pen painting, wood carving, leather work, Batik, French polishing and more. Accompanied by a second flyer for ‘The Artist’s Forum’ organised by Mary Mansfield, inviting visitors to lectures by artists on different subjects.

Little is recorded about Sydney artist Mary Mansfield, however she did write the Foreword to an exhibition catalogue on Ida Rental Outhwaite in 1917, so carried some influence in the arts community.
