This biography brings to life the story of a forgotten 19th-century philanthropist. Although extremely well known during her lifetime she has been forgotten by her fellow countrymen and women in the UK. She is still revered in Australia for her work in helping free settlers to the colony.

This is the first book written on the life and work of this 20th Century modern artist. She trained at the Royal Academy from 1906 to 1911. Several art galleries in the UK and one in Australia, own a painting by Madeline Green. Her art was well received during her lifetime, and her profile has risen in recent times. When her art appears on the open market it sells well. She had a unique talent and the book contains images of nearly all of the known paintings in Madeline Green’s portfolio of work.
