Gee mostly painted battle scenes, landscapes as well as pictures inspired by local legends such as Lady Godiva.[1] He was active as a painter between the years of 1815 and 1868. He died in 1871 or 1872.[2] In 1831, Gee began restoration work on the Holy Trinity Doom, an early 15th-century painting of the Last Judgment.[3][4] He received five guineas for his work.[4] There is little contemporary information about Gee's work on the Doom, but conservation work begun in 1995[5] suggests he added outlines to the figures and repainted or recoloured some areas. There is no evidence that Gee significantly changed the painting's composition or symbolism.[4] Gee also applied a coating of megilp to the painting.[4] This bituminous varnish soon degraded and by 1873 the Doom was 'almost invisible'.[6] References1. ^{{cite book|last=Kemp|first=David|title=Pleasures and Treasures of Britain: A Discerning Traveller's Companion|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=S7XyMa-n5_YC&lpg=PA236&dq=David%20Gee%20painter&pg=PA236#v=onepage&q=David%20Gee%20painter&f=false|year=1992|publisher=Dundurn Group Ltd|isbn=978-1-55002-159-2|page=236}} 2. ^{{cite book|last=Mallalieu|first=H.L|title=The Dictionary of British Watercolour Artists up to 1920|year=1976|publisher=Baron Publishing|isbn=978-0-902028-48-7|pages=108}} 3. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.holytrinitycoventry.org.uk/Groups/179215/Holy_Trinity_Church/Our_History/Medieval_painting_of/Medieval_painting_of.aspx | title=Holy Trinity Church, The painting of the Last Judgement | accessdate=April 4, 2012}} 4. ^1 2 3 {{cite book | editor1=Monckton, Linda |editor2=Richard K.
