Te Papa
Wellington, New Zealand

The New Zealand expatriate Frances Hodgkins made the most of her itinerant life, depicting the people and places she came across in her travels.

About the time she painted this work, she wrote to her mother from the Hotel Bellevue in Montreuil-sur-Mer, northern France: ‘This little inn is mostly filled by fishermen who come about this time for the fly-fishing.’
