Regina Seiden (4 July 1897- 11 January 1991) was a Jewish Canadian Woman painter who was an early member of the Beaver Hall Group.[1][2] Born in Rigaud, Quebec, Seiden moved with her family to Montreal in 1905.[3] Between 1905 and 1912 she attended the French Catholic school Académie Marie-Rose, located in the Plateau neighbourhood of Montreal, where she was encouraged to explore her talents as a painter.[1][4] Between 1913 and 1918 Seiden attended the Art Association of Montreal where she studied under William Brymner, Edmond Dyonnet and Maurice Cullen.[1] Along with other former students of William Brymner, Seiden joined the Beaver Hall Group and took part in their first exhibit in 1921.[5] In 1921 Seiden moved to Paris where she studied for a year at the Académie Julien. In 1926 Seiden returned to Paris where she met her husband, fellow artist Eric Goldberg. They got married in 1928 at which point she stopped painting until after his death in 1969. Seiden lived and painted in Montreal until her death in 1991.
