Title
The Lived Experience and Cultural Narrative of Helen McNicoll's Impressionist Canvases
Abstract
The author examines the works of Montreal impressionist painter Helen McNicoll (1879–1915), analysing them as creative inventions that mediate the irreducible gap between cultural symbolization and experience. McNicoll was a painter of women and girls, and the author centres on the difference that gender makes in her canvases.
