The Rex Whistler trophy in the Blue Room at Trent Park. Executed in about 1930.one of these images shows the room before Whistler’s work. When finished, the house had a very different feel to Philip Sassoon’s earlier house, Port Lympne. @cliveaslet described Trent as having “an appreciation of English reserve”. I was lucky enough to be asked to do the analysis of the room, having only known it through old family photographs. #rexwhistler #philipsassoon #houghtonhall #trentpark #cliveaslet #portlympne #winstonchurchill #bevan #trophy #paint #restoration #countrylife #antiquecollector #cholmondeley #1930sdecoration #1930sphotography (at Trent Park)

If nothing else, I will rest contented to be known as the man who changed the colour of the railings at the Old Royal Naval College from Black to Bronze Green. #greenwich #royalnavalcollege #bronzegreen #black #railings #ironwork (at Old Royal Naval College)
Robert Polhill Bevan (1865-1925). Whisky and Soda. 1914. This is a rare still life by Bevan. In common with several of his Camden Town Group colleagues, Bevan’s approach to still-life painting (the close-up presentation, the angled viewpoint, the casual cutting of the composition and the use of outline drawing) reveals the definite, if muted, influence of Gauguin and Cezanne. Bevan had worked with Gauguin in the 1890s. #robertbevan #gauguin #camdentowngroup #cezanne #stilllife #whiskyandsoda #whisky #soda
