Gertrude Spurr Cutts (1858–1941) was a Canadian artist.
Born in Yorkshire, England, Gertrude Spurr began her career as an artist in England, exhibiting her work with the Royal Society of British Artists and the Society of Women Artists.[1]
In 1890, Cutts emigrated to Canada, moving to Toronto, and opened an art studio. In 1900, she studied at the Art Students League of New York with George Bridgman, Birge Harrison, and John F. Carlsen.[1] She married William Cutts in 1909, and the couple spent three years painting in England.
Cutts had a diverse body of work, comprising oil and watercolour paintings and pen and ink sketches; she is perhaps best known for her rural landscape paintings.[1] She also worked as a restorer of old or damaged paintings.[2]
Cutts' work is included in the collections of the National Gallery of Canada, the Art Gallery of Ontario, the Art Gallery of Hamilton, and the Robert McLaughlin Gallery.[1]
She died in Port Perry, Ontario in 1941.
