Florence Helena McGillivray was a prolific Canadian artist renowned for her landscape paintings. Less studied, or collected, are McGillivray\u2019s ceramic works. McGillivray created her ceramics by decorating porcelain blanks in a process known as a china painting. A popular activity among Canadian middle and upper-class women at the time, china painting was also seen as an avenue to generate income independently. Although McGillivray supplemented her own income by teaching art, she may have seen china painting as another revenue stream. It is also possible that these works remained personal: other known pieces of McGillivray\u2019s china painting include a portrait of her mother on a porcelain tile and bracelet kept by her sister."},"medium":{"label":"Medium","value":"Glazed porcelain blank, hand-painted with overglaze enamels and gilding"},"onview":{"label":"On View","value":"1"},"media":{"label":"Media","value":[{"mediaRenditionNumber":"G14.7.1 (2)","publicAccess":"true","mediaImageURL":"https://emuseum.gardinermuseum.com/internal/media/dispatcher/17894/full","rank":"0","pixelHeight":"2400","pixelWidth":"3000","mediaID":"17894"},{"mediaRenditionNumber":"G14.7.1 view 4","publicAccess":"true","mediaImageURL":"https://emuseum.gardinermuseum.com/internal/media/dispatcher/17895/full","rank":"0","pixelHeight":"2400","pixelWidth":"3000","mediaID":"17895"},{"mediaRenditionNumber":"G14.7.1 view 3","publicAccess":"true","mediaImageURL":"https://emuseum.gardinermuseum.com/internal/media/dispatcher/17896/full","rank":"0","pixelHeight":"2400","pixelWidth":"3000","mediaID":"17896"},{"mediaRenditionNumber":"G14.7.1 view 2","publicAccess":"true","mediaImageURL":"https://emuseum.gardinermuseum.com/internal/media/dispatcher/17897/full","rank":"0","pixelHeight":"2400","pixelWidth":"3000","mediaID":"17897"}]},"title":{"label":"Title","value":"Small jug with sylized flowers"},"classification":{"label":"Classifications","value":"Modern and Contemporary Ceramics"},"people":{"label":"Artist / Maker","value":"Florence Helena McGillivray"},"rels":{"label":"Relations","value":"[]"},"subclassification2":{"label":"Sub-classification 2","value":""},"primaryMedia":{"value":"https://emuseum.gardinermuseum.com/internal/media/dispatcher/17894/full"},"subclassification3":{"label":"Sub-classification 3","value":""},"collections":{"label":"Collections","value":["Modern and Contemporary Ceramics","Ceramics for the Canadian Market","Modern and Contemporary - Canadian"]},"culture":{"label":"Culture","value":"Canadian"},"displayDate":{"label":"Date","value":"1909"},"id":{"label":"Id","value":"181241"},"dimensions":{"label":"Dimensions","value":"Overall: 13 × 11.5 × 8.2 cm (5 1/8 × 4 1/2 × 3 1/4 in.)"}}]}
