What's attractive on stage, need not necessarily be attractive off.

His finest.

'The Beach.' (1929) William Roberts can be seen as the urban, secular form of Stanley Spencer. His style changed little over the years, favouring solid statue-like, friendly figures, and positive, celebratory images of everyday life.

'St Ives,' (1941) was painted by Wilhelmina Barns-Graham at a time when St Ives in Cornwall was an unlikely hotbed of British modernism.

'The Lighthouse,' (1939) was painted by Tristram Hillier around the outbreak of WW2. The meticulously arranged foreground acts as a stage for his assortment of props, which when brought together as one creates a surrealist atmosphere.

The Serpentine has unveiled Jesús Rafael Soto’s Pénétrable BBL Jaune. It is said to be a meditation on space, perception and participation. I see it as something similar to what my nan hung across her kitchen door to keep the flies out.

Edgar Hereford studied at the Slade and became a close friend of Rudolph Ihlee; in 1922, they travelled to Collioure, the Mediterranean fishing port in the south of France. This work shows the commune of Marquixanes near Prades about an hour’s drive from Collioure.

'Summer in the Garden,' depicts the artist Vanessa Bell at Roger Fry’s house Durbins, Guildford, Surrey. Bell rented a cottage close to Durbins and was painted and drawn several times by Fry in the late summer of 1911. Their love affair began shortly afterwards.

Attending art school at eleven, by his twenties Diego Rivera was counted among the most influential figures of the Parisian art scene of the early 20thC including Picasso, Modigliani and Braque. This work was painted in 1904 when he was 18 and at the San Carlos Academy, Mexico.

[Richard Morris @ahistoryinart]

'Two Women,' (1914) is an early Diego Rivera masterpiece. The picture depicts his first wife Angelina Belloff and the painter Alma Dolores Bastian. The year he made this painting, Rivera began a new phase in his life, focusing on landscapes and rediscovering colour.

Like his friend Paul Nash who he met at the Slade, Claughton Pellew believed trees held a spiritual quality. This work from 1924 likely features his wife Emma (also an artist) walking near their home at Southrepps, North Norfolk.

In 1957 Hockney stopped off in Kirton, Suffolk for a summer holiday; this picture shows the High Street. There's no plaque marking this association. A few years ago, when I enquired why, the reply was that few people knew about it! Hockney rather enjoyed that when I told him.

For a beautiful soul taken so brutally from this life and all who loved her.
Never forgotten by us, hope will prevail in the memory of your name.

Remembering David Hockney, he was kind and always had a sparkle in his eye. He never stopped experimenting and is one of the finest painters of our generation.

Fed up. Just spent 14 weeks at @nottsinquiry didn’t miss a minute as this was all I could do in my daughter Grace’s name against all those who failed.
Get to my desk and this is what I’m greeted with……

Great work of art, the pattern, distance and simplicity.

'Farm on a Hillside,' (1914) shows the characteristic hallmarks of John Nash's pattern-making. Before WW1 John and Paul were spoken of as ‘the Nash brothers’ because their work was so close in spirit; John’s paintings frequently received better reviews than those of Paul.
