Maude Burge (née Williams, 18 May 1865 – 20 May 1957[1]) was a New Zealand painter influenced by James Nairn.[2] She spent time as an expatriate artist[3] specifically in Europe. Burge was a painting companion of Frances Hodgkins who called Maude Burge a "charming changeable woman" in her published letters. They painted together at the Burge family home in St. Tropez and in Ibiza.[4] Burge's paintings are held in the permanent collection of Auckland Art Gallery,[5] the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa,[6] the National Art Gallery of New Zealand,[7] the Fletcher Trust Collection,[8] the National Library of New Zealand[9] and among private art collectors in the northern and southern hemispheres. Burge exhibited her paintings at the New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts.[4]
