At the end of World War I, she was a medical illustrator to Ernest William Hey Groves, a well-known orthopaedic surgeon, at Beaufort War Hospital, a military orthopaedic centre in Stapleton, Bristol. After the armistice, she completed numerous pen and watercolour illustrations of operations at the Ministry of Pensions Hospital, Bath, and Southmead Hospital, Westbury-on-Trym. She also produced illustrations for papers written by medical colleagues at Bristol General Hospital.
In the 1920s, she was a member of the Bristol Venture Club, one of the first women's classification clubs. She was also a good amateur golfer and a member of the Bristol and Clifton golf club. In later life, she lived with her mother and sister, Irene Dorothy, a former inspector for the Board of Trade. She died at a nursing home in Stoke Bishop, Bristol, close to Sneyd Park. In 1989, her artwork, including ink drawings and colour illustrations of orthopaedic surgery, was exhibited at the British Orthopaedic Association conference. In 2013, her niece donated her artwork to the Royal College of Surgeons of England.
Early life
editDulcie Mary was born on 17 August 1891,[1] at Glen Gariff, Chesterfield Road, St Andrew's, Bristol,[2] the second daughter of Ernest James Pillers and Elizabeth Scott, née Webb.[3][a] Elizabeth Scott was the daughter of Robert Barrett Webb,[3] a former partner in Laverton & Co, furnishers and upholsterers,[5] at Corn Street and Mary le Port Street in Bristol.[6][b] Ernest James was a Bristol solicitor and the son of a hop merchant. They had married on 4 September 1889 at St Werburgh's Church, Bristol.[3][c]
Pillers' father had a troubled career as a solicitor in Bristol. In 1898, he was charged with forging shares in the Fishponds and Bedminster Brick and Tile Company and obtaining transfer deeds by false pretences,[14] though the case was settled the following year.[15] In 1905, his firm at St Stephen's Chambers, Baldwin Street, Bristol, was embezzled by a shorthand clerk.[16] Subsequently, on 15 March 1905, a creditor petitioned for bankruptcy, and he was made bankrupt on 19 May 1905.[17] He had been suffering from a long and painful illness,[18] and for this reason, his public examination on 2 June 1905 was postponed.[19] He died only a few days later on 4 June 1905 (aged 41),[20] at 16 Withleigh Road, Knowle, Bristol.[18] His funeral was held at Arnos Vale Cemetery in the afternoon of the 7 June 1905.[20]
After her father's death, the family moved from Withleigh Road to live with Pillers' maternal grandparents, the Webbs, at 20 Belgrave Road, Tyndalls Park.[4]: 456–457 In 1906, Pillers began corresponding with the "Children's Corner" section in the Bristol Times and Mirror,[21] that was edited by Florence Beatrice Hawkins, née Bird.[22][d] She entered the puzzle and painting competitions in that section, coming second in March 1907 for her "charming watercolour seascape, with softly coloured cliffs and brown rocks; also another clever painting of three kittens, and a third of a bunch of violets."[24]
Pillers' younger brother, Robert Kingsley, would also enter the newspaper competitions.[25] He was educated at the Merchant Venturers' technical college, gaining a scholarship to study automotive engineering at the University of Bristol.[26] He worked for Morgan and Wood, automobile engineers at 7 Unity Street, Bristol,[27][e] before being called-up to the Northamptonshire Regiment at the start of World War I.[26][f] He made the rank of lieutenant colonel and was appointed an OBE in the 1919 New Year Honours.[26] In World War II, he served as an educational officer in the Royal Air Force Educational Service, and was given the honorary (and matching) rank of wing commander.[30]
Pillers' elder sister, Irene Dorothy, was an inspector for the Board of Trade.[31] She was educated at Fairfield College for Girls,[32] Apsley Road, Clifton, Bristol,[33] and Skerry's College, 88, Park Street, Bristol, where in July 1920, she passed civil service entrance examinations, coming twelfth out of six hundred candidates.[34] In the 1930s, she was a member of the South-Western and Wales regional branch of the Council of Women Civil Servants.[35] In 1951, she joined the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society, and later, moved to The Plain, Nympsfield, near Stroud, Gloucestershire.[36] She was elected to the Royal Archaeological Institute in 1961.[37]: 232
Education
editPillers was educated at Kensington Government School of Art, known occasionally as "Kensington House School of Art",[38] 31 Berkeley Square, Clifton, Bristol.[39][g] The school was founded in 1890 by John Fisher,[41] with the objective of providing a grounding in drawing, sculpture, and design, for professional artists, designers, craftsmen, and art teachers. The school offered courses in artistic anatomy, architecture, decorative design, modelling, figure composition, and painting. There was also an annual exhibition of students' work.[42] William Stuart Vernon Stock, an anaesthetist at the 2nd Southern General Hospital in 1908,[43] was honorary lecturer in anatomy at the school.[42][h]
Pillers took courses in:
- 1908Drawing an ornament from a photograph; drawing in light and shade of an ornament from a cast; memory drawing of a plant form. : [38]
- 1909Painting an ornament in monochrome; model drawing; still life painting. : [45]
- 1911Shaded drawing from a group of models; geometrical problems worked in ink. : [46]
She graduated from the school in September 1911, aged 20, with an Art Class Teachers' Certificate.[46] At the end of July 1914, the school closed and moved to new premises at Broad Weir, Bristol,[47] to form the Municipal School of Industrial Art.[48] In December 1921, John Fisher retired through ill health,[49] and a year later, the school was closed permanently because of dwindling pupil numbers and escalating costs.[50]
Career
editBy 1918, Pillers was employed as a secretary and medical illustrator to Ernest William Hey Groves,[53] a well-known orthopaedic surgeon.[4]: 457 [i] He was commissioned captain in the Royal Army Medical Corps in World War I,[55]: 138 serving for a year at the surgical division of a general hospital in Alexandria, Egypt.[56]: 93 In 1917, Sir Robert Jones, Inspector of Military Orthopaedics,[55]: 138 recommended that he take charge of the military orthopaedic centre at Beaufort War Hospital in Stapleton, Bristol.[57][j] The war was one of the most destructive conflicts in human history, leaving over 750 thousand British troops dead with 1.6 million injured, the majority with orthopaedic injuries.[58]: 12 At least half the patients arriving at Beaufort had compound fractures caused by shrapnel and gunshot wounds.[57] Hey Groves experimented with grafts and pins to stabilise the fractures and used medical illustrators to record the operations. At the time, photography was unable show enough detail of the interior of the body to be of use to surgeons.[4]: 459 Conversely, photography was used extensively for medical records, slides, and book illustration.[59]: 56
Hey Groves wrote several standard textbooks on surgery for students and nurses, but before 1915, they contained few illustrations.[4]: 457 [k] His 1915 book, Gunshot Injuries of Bones, was illustrated by Lucy Marion Joll, known as Marion Joll, the younger sister of Cecil Augustus Joll,[60] who had proofread the book.[61]: Preface [l] From January 1916, Cecil Gwendolen St Leger Russell worked with Hey Groves at Beaufort and Southmead Hospital as a "surgical draughtswoman",[67] illustrating his 1918 paper on the treatment of gunshot injuries to bone.[68][m] Pillers, with Russell, illustrated Hey Groves's first post-armistice paper, "The Crucial Ligaments of the Knee‑joint", published in the January 1919 edition of the British Journal of Surgery.[69] In December 1918, Russell married Niel Charles Trew, an American physician, born in Toronto,[70] who had worked at Beaufort during the war.[71][n] In March 1919, the Trews left Bristol for New York, and in consequence, Pillers became the sole medical illustrator to Hey Groves.[70]
After the war, Pillers completed numerous pen and watercolour illustrations of bone-grafting operations.[4]: 458 In 1920, with Alexander Kirkpatrick Maxwell, she illustrated Arthur Rendle Short's book on physiology.[72] She contributed to a number of papers on rheumatic and coronary artery diseases by Carey Coombs,[73] including the 1926 Long Fox Memorial Lecture.[74][o] In 1933, Hey Groves retired from the consulting staff of Bristol General Hospital and the University of Bristol medical school.[76]: 166 In the same year, Percy Phillips was appointed medical superintendent of Southmead Hospital,[77] with Pillers also working there.[78] She continued to contribute to her colleague's medical papers, including sketches of bone cross-sections, that exhibited the typical features of renal rickets.[79]
I have to express my grateful thanks to Miss Pillers for the care and skill she has bestowed upon the preparation of the illustrations, which form, I think, its most valuable feature.
Hey Groves, Some Contributions to the Reconstructive Surgery of the Hip (1927).
Hey Groves died on 22 October 1944,[80] and in recognition of Pillers' "long and devoted service", he left her his casebooks and copyright in Synopsis of Surgery.[53] In 1945, the book was updated and edited by Sir Cecil Wakeley, with Pillers contributing new illustrations, and republished as the twelfth edition.[81] On 2 April 1949, she attended the founding meeting of the Medical Artists' Association of Great Britain at Nunnery Close, Upper Wolvercote, Oxford, the then home of Audrey Arnott and Margaret McLarty. Also present, amongst others, were Zita Blackburn and Dorothy Davison, elected honorary secretary and treasurer respectively, and David Tompsett, assistant prosector at the Royal College of Surgeons of England, who was elected chairman. At the following meeting in July 1950, it was agreed that those who had attended the first meeting would become founding members of the association.[59]: 59
Personal life
editIn the 1920s, Pillers was a member of the Bristol Venture Club, one of the first women's classification clubs,[82]: 34 and was registered in the club's records as an "anatomical artist".[83][p] She was an active participant in the club's membership committee and charitable activities.[84][85] However, in 1930, the club merged with the Soroptimist volunteer movement,[82]: 61 and she allowed her membership to lapse.[83] In the 1930s, she lived at 24 Goldney Road in Clifton,[86] and along with Hey Groves,[54] was a member of the Bristol and Clifton golf club.[87] She won a number of club medals at monthly competitions,[87] off an improving handicap of 25.[88][q]
Pillers' home at Goldney Road was damaged during the Bristol Blitz,[91] and by July 1941, she had moved to Kimbolton House, 2 Mount Beacon in Lansdown, Bath,[92] close to the then Lansdown Grove Hospital, and now known as Haygarth Court.[93][r] In 1943, she returned to Clifton to live with her sister at Eaton Villa in Clifton Down.[36][97] She never married; nine per cent of all British men under the age of forty-five died during World War I. While many women remained unmarried due to the lack of available men, some women in this period remained single by choice or by financial necessity. Furthermore, careers such as medicine were opening up to women, but only if they remained unmarried.[98]
Death and legacy
editPillers' mother died on 9 April 1960[99] 9 Downleaze, Stoke Bishop, Bristol, close to Sneyd Park.[100] Pillers died after a long illness at the same nursing home on 2 December 1961 (aged 70).[101] Her funeral was held at Canford Cemetery, Westbury-on-Trym, and her remains were later cremated.[102] Her estate was administered by her niece,[103] Elizabeth Mary Marrian (known as "Biddy"), née Kingsley Pillers,[104] the only child of Pillers' brother, Robert Kingsley.[105] Marrian was a qualified doctor, a former research fellow at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center,[106] and until her retirement, director of medical studies at Girton College, Cambridge.[105][s]
(aged 96) at Downleaze Nursing Home,In 1989, Pillers' artwork, including ink drawings and colour illustrations of orthopaedic surgery, was exhibited at the British Orthopaedic Association conference.[4]: 462 In 2013, Marrian donated around twenty-five illustrations by Pillers to the archives of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. In February 2015, Gordon Bannister, professor of orthopaedic surgery at the University of Bristol, presented a further seventy-five illustrations to the same archives.[107][t] In the same year, her life and career was chronicled by Samuel Alberti, then director of museums and archives at the Royal College of Surgeons of England (which includes the Hunterian Museum).[109] On 11 March 2015, he presented this research to the Royal College of Physicians of Edinburgh, as part of a series of seminars organised by the Edinburgh History of Medicine Group.[110] In May 2015, he made a related presentation of her work to the Hunterian Society, at the Medical Society of London, entitled Watercolour, Woodcut and Wax: Medical Illustrations since Hunter.[111]
