Obviously subject matter counts so it'll be interesting to see how the pavement artist fares on April 28th.

'Ambleside,' (1786) is a particularly good example of Francis Towne's very flat, economical, ‘modern’ watercolours. He was rejected by the Royal Academy 11 times for membership but despite this successfully lived and worked outside of London’s influence.

The river Arveyron is a short tributary of the river Arvea and rises from the base of the Glacier des Bois in Chamonix. In this watercolour of 1781, Francis Towne disregards traditional perspective, and gives an abstract vision of the landscape.

Richard Eurich's paintings are of weather, light and atmosphere.Their facture is erased in reproduction, which makes them look rather bland. In reality, his brushstrokes are visible and various: almost pointillist in 'Staithes,' (1938) giving the picture a specific physicality.

Grace Henry was overshadowed by her more famous husband Paul Henry - she painted a number of interesting representational pictures and though she studied with André
Lhote for a time, had a leaning towards Fauvism rather than becoming a Cubist.

In the summer of 1919 Wyndham Lewis began to return to drawing from nature, with a particular emphasis on the human figure which concentrated on depicting a seated girl and often with other props such as a Windsor chair, or in this case, holding a cat.

John Piper's 1943 painting depicts the London home of James McNeill Whistler at 96 Cheyne Walk. The house overlooks the Thames river and also housed his studio where he painted the famous portrait of his mother, as well as many of his Nocturne pictures.

'The Baillie Family after Thomas Gainsborough.' (1935) Duncan Grant made copies and paraphrases after the Old Masters all his life including a very good copy of Piero della Francesca's profile of Federigo da Montefeltro painted in Florence in the winter of 1904-05.

'Lovers Lane, Dunwich.' (1948) Edward Bawden had been working from a studio on the marshes at Dunwich after his return from the Middle East in 1945. He made several return painting trips to the village with Eric Ravilious and John Nash after moving to nearby Great Bardfield.

'London Park.' (1911) Isaac Rosenberg's life and work are a fusion of conflicting energies - a painter and playwright as well as a poet. Some of his best prewar poems are in the style of Blake, and not shallow imitations, either. In writing and art he was a realist and modernist.
