The growing movement away from a European philosophy was formalised with the emergence in 1929 of a group called\u00a0<em>The Society of Trinidad Independents.<\/em>\u00a0The Independents gathered in private homes, painted and discussed the arts and developed their ideas.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Amy Leong Pang (b.1908 d.1989) was one of the founding members and under her guidance, the artists grouped themselves into an informal alliance which can be said to have become the first School of Trinidadian painting. Included in this group was Hugh Stollmeyer (b.1813 d.1981), to whom Leong Pang was particularly close.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div  id=\"jtg-371\" class=\"modula modula-gallery modula-creative-gallery\" data-config=\"{&quot;height&quot;:300,&quot;tabletHeight&quot;:300,&quot;mobileHeight&quot;:300,&quot;desktopHeight&quot;:300,&quot;enableTwitter&quot;:true,&quot;enableWhatsapp&quot;:false,&quot;enableFacebook&quot;:true,&quot;enablePinterest&quot;:true,&quot;enableLinkedin&quot;:true,&quot;enableEmail&quot;:false,&quot;randomFactor&quot;:0,&quot;type&quot;:&quot;creative-gallery&quot;,&quot;columns&quot;:12,&quot;gutter&quot;:20,&quot;mobileGutter&quot;:10,&quot;tabletGutter&quot;:10,&quot;desktopGutter&quot;:10,&quot;enableResponsive&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;tabletColumns&quot;:&quot;2&quot;,&quot;mobileColumns&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;lazyLoad&quot;:0,&quot;lightboxOpts&quot;:{&quot;animated&quot;:true,&quot;Thumbs&quot;:{&quot;type&quot;:&quot;modern&quot;,&quot;showOnStart&quot;:false},&quot;Toolbar&quot;:{&quot;display&quot;:{&quot;right&quot;:[&quot;close&quot;]},&quot;enabled&quot;:true},&quot;Carousel&quot;:{&quot;Panzoom&quot;:{&quot;touch&quot;:true},&quot;infinite&quot;:false},&quot;keyboard&quot;:{&quot;Escape&quot;:&quot;close&quot;,&quot;Delete&quot;:&quot;close&quot;,&quot;Backspace&quot;:&quot;close&quot;,&quot;PageUp&quot;:false,&quot;PageDown&quot;:false,&quot;ArrowUp&quot;:false,&quot;ArrowDown&quot;:false,&quot;ArrowRight&quot;:false,&quot;ArrowLeft&quot;:false},&quot;touch&quot;:false,&quot;backdropClick&quot;:false,&quot;l10n&quot;:{&quot;CLOSE&quot;:&quot;Close&quot;,&quot;NEXT&quot;:&quot;Next&quot;,&quot;PREV&quot;:&quot;Previous&quot;,&quot;Error&quot;:&quot;The requested content cannot be loaded.
