Elizabeth Godshalk Burger was born #onthisday in 1917. She painted this cheerful still life, with its vivid blues and greens and bright, candy-colored pinks, as a student at Arthur B. Carles's Chestnut Street studio. Burger's intellectual pursuits went far beyond painting. Over the course of approximately two decades, she earned two bachelor's degrees and three master's degrees. She studied zoology, landscape architecture, philosophy, and theology. -- Image: Still Life, 1940, by Elizabeth Godshalk Burger (Gift of Bill Scott in memory of Florence Powell Scott, 1995) #WoodmereArt #WomenAtWoodmere #ElizabethGodshalkBurger #PhillyArtist
