Dr. Carol Atack (University of Oxford) will be responding to the 'Artist: Unknown' exhibition on 5 September at 1.15pm. Come along to this free talk to find out more about objects such as this! https://www.kettlesyard.co.uk/events/perspectives-artist-unknown-2/ -- This may look like a normal portrait, but what makes it so interesting, is that it was originally thought to be by the 19th-century artist, Edgar Degas. Now, it is simply attributed to 'French School' as there is no concrete evidence to link the painting to Degas. Who do you think painted it? Discover more mysteries in our current exhibition, #ArtistUnknownUCM. On display until 22 September.
Alfred Wallis was born #OTD in 1855. Did you know that Alfred Wallis was a fisherman? 🚣🎣 He turned to painting after his wife died as a way to fend off loneliness. Now, many of his paintings live in the House at Kettle's Yard. Some of them are hung low down, perfect for children's eyes as they wander past! #AlfredWallis #KettlesYard #WallofWallis
