About this event
This Study Day explores the artistic dynasty which is the Nicholson family. Beginning with Sir William Nicholson (1872 – 1949) who was initially a woodblock artist and then developed his painting style specialising in still lives and landscapes. He was also a successful portrait painter of famous sitters such as J.M Barry.
The second lecture looks at William’s son the painter Ben Nicholson’s work and his various experiments from the 1920s – 1950s including primitivism, cubism, and abstraction. The final lecture examines the work of the wives and daughters of William and Ben including Mable Pryde who married William in 1893, Winfred Roberts who married Ben Nicholson in 1920 and Winfred’s daughter Kate also a landscape and still-life painter We also look at Barbara Hepworth’s work and the influence it had on husband Ben.
