Works

Ethel Spowers was a highly accomplished painter, printmaker, illustrator, and author. The following list of works is a compilation of exhibition catalogues and identification of works held in private and publication collections. Some works were exhibited under multiple titles, and where possible these have been identified. During Spowers lifetime and possibly after her death a number of works of art were destroyed. Through the publication of this catalogue raisonné online, it is hoped that works of art by Ethel Spowers will be rediscovered.
