Georgie Gaskin

With her husband Arthur Gaskin, Georgie was one of the original members of the Birmingham Group of Artist-Craftsmen which formed around Joseph Southall in the 1890s, and reflected the influence of the Arts and Crafts movement at the Birmingham School of Art under the headmastership of Edward R.

A few years after Arthur's death in 1928, Georgie moved to West Malling, Kent where she died in 1934.
