Oil on canvas, c1911.
Flowers, plant life and gardens have fascinated and inspired generations of artists. York Art Gallery’s exhibition ‘Bloom’ brings together more than 100 botanical artworks from its collection, alongside key loans, to explore the importance of nature and green spaces for enjoyment, creativity and wellbeing.
‘Bloom’ showcases flora through paintings, works on paper, ceramics and contemporary installations. The exhibition highlights the story of the Museum Gardens in York through art, from its early beginnings through to its activities today, before exploring a wonderful range of still life paintings from the Gallery’s own collection as well as a series of loans. In the final space, featured works show how gardens and flowers are able to reflect and draw on themes of identity. The exhibition encourages visitors to think about the significance of our natural world and how best to enjoy, cherish and protect it.

By Herbert William Bryans (1855-1925), c1911.
Bryans was a pupil of Clayton & Bell and later worked for Charles Eamer Kempe who was a great influence. So much so that his work is often mistaken for that of Kempe. He started his own business in 1897.

Yoshio Markino
Colour woodcut
This woodcut shows Buckingham Palace in faint outline at dusk. The artist, Yoshio Markino, arrived in London in 1897 and quickly grew to love the city, writing that ‘Age and the fogs have made the buildings so beautiful’. The scene is presented with the simplicity of a Japanese print, but the colours are muted and the winding path through Green Park introduces a strong sense of perspective.

Japan: Courts and Culture
(April 2022 - February 2023)
The Royal Collection holds some of the most significant examples of Japanese art and design in the western world. For the first time, highlights from this outstanding collection are brought together to tell the story of 300 years of diplomatic, artistic and cultural exchange between the British and Japanese royal and imperial families. The exhibition includes rare pieces of porcelain and lacquer, samurai armour, embroidered screens and diplomatic gifts from the reigns of James I to Queen Elizabeth II. Together, they offer a unique insight into the worlds of ritual, honour and artistry linking the courts and cultures of Britain and Japan.
