An early version or study for her painting "Femme à la robe verte et son chat" (sold Vanderkindere Auction House, Brussels, Belgium, December 2021). According to Papillon Gallery: "Laura Turner was born in 1888 in Namur, Belgium. She studied in art academies in Brussels, at the Chelsea Art School in London and atelier Hofstetter in Munich. Turner exhibited at the 1914 Triennale in Brucells, during World War Two she showed her work in London and Toronto. In 1928 she exhibited at the Salon des Artistes Français in Paris. In the late 1920’s and early 30’s she had numerous exhibitions in Brussels, including The Galerie Georges Giroux, Galerie Charles Roy, Galerie Themis and Galerie Belliard. She exhibited alongside Picasso, Osip Zadkine, De Smet, Van den Berghe, and Floris Jespers. In the early 1930’s she painted a number of expressionist paintings on the theme of maternity. She traveled to Ukraine in the 1930’s where she executed a monumental expressionist mural in the Monastery at Pidichalowce. Her paintings were acquired by the province of Brabant and by the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Brussels. Turner’s paintings are typical of Belgian Expressionism. In recent years there have been many books published on the subject of the Belgian modernists, many from the Wallon region of Belgium. There was a monograph on Turner published in 1935.
