Impressionists on Paper: Degas to Toulouse-Lautrec
(November 2023 - March 2024)
Degas, Cézanne, Morisot, Van Gogh. You might recognise their paintings, but it’s their radical works on paper we put the spotlight on in this ground-breaking exhibition.
In the whirl of modernity that was late 19th-century France, Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists radically transformed the future direction of art. But it wasn’t just through their paintings. In a subtle but seismic shift, they lifted the status of works on paper – drawings, pastels, watercolours, temperas, gouaches – from something preparatory that you left in a studio, to artworks in their own right.
In this rich exhibition, we bring together 77 works on paper by leading Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists whose innovation would challenge traditional attitudes and ultimately pave the way for later movements like Abstract Expressionism...
...The enduring popularity of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art is mainly due to the celebrated paintings by artists such as Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Vincent van Gogh and Paul Cézanne. Drawings, pastels, watercolours, temperas and gouaches by these artists have historically received less attention. The examples in this exhibition, gathered from collections across Britain and Europe, reveal how Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works on paper are as significant as paintings.
Since its foundation in 1648, the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture had exerted official control over artistic practices and standards in France, as well as determining what subjects should be depicted.
Despite reforms, by the nineteenth century the Académie’s authority was being challenged by artists. The emphasis previously placed on drawing for the purposes of training or solely as part of the preparatory process for finished work was regarded as far too restrictive.
Avant-garde artists such as the Impressionists saw that works on paper had a wider potential, especially given their preference for contemporary subject matter and their aesthetic principles based on light and colour. Although they did not totally renounce working in their studios or using models, these artists increasingly sought inspiration directly from nature, modern life and the careful observation of individuals. Furthermore, they readily adopted new approaches including the selection and use of media, supports, techniques and formats.
This greater freedom encouraged the Impressionists and Post-Impressionists to make independent works on paper for exhibition or sale. This was how, by the end of the nineteenth century, drawing achieved parity with painting and played an important role in the developments of modern art.

Day seven of our Norway Trip.
👉 Free Northern Norway Guide Book PDF with all our tips, tricks, best hotels, places to visit and more. bit.ly/MyNorwayGuide
Today was such a fun day, we went snowshoeing and ice fishing in Alta Norway with a company called GLOD Explore and we even had our own personal husky.
We started our day at our hotel the Scandic Alta with some breakfast before driving to GLOD Explore. At GLOD Explore we got kitted up and met all the huskies. Our husky for the day was called Atlas.
We drove from GLOD Explore to a nearby mountain where we started our snowshoeing adventure.
First we snowshoed about 30 minutes were we came to a viewpoint at the top of a hill that overlooked Kafjorden Fjord (this was the anchorage of the German battleship Tirpitz for much of World War II).
We then went down to the lake where we started ice fishing. We needed to drill our own holes first. after trying for a while the only person to catch a fish was Holly. Our guide then prepared it and cooked it in a Lavu on the shores of the fjord we were fishing on.
After that we trekked back to the car and went back to GLOD Explore, all together the experience was around five hours long and I would recommend it as it was a lot of fun.
We then drove to Bjornfjell Mountain lodge where I had rented a cabin for the next two nights. At Bjornfjell Mountain Lodge we played in the snow and in a snow house someone had dug into the snow and then went to a local grill for our dinner.
We were really happy here and our cabin was great with amazing views over the ski resort.

25 - Oct - 2015:
We popped down to Oxford to see our daughter and her boyfriend.
They live 10 minutes walk from the river which leads into Oxford and we often go down there and pop into one of the riverside pubs for lunch.
We actually sat in the garden in the sun, at the end of October.
Love is a springtime plant that perfumes everything with its hope, even the ruins to which it clings.
