Lucy Harwood

The Suffolk eccentric whose medical misfortunate cost her a career in music but led to a life in art.  

Our 18^th March Twentieth Century Art & Design auction includes several paintings by (Eva) Lucy Harwood (1893-1972).   Her vibrant works display a colourful personality and individuality of spirit, which was also apparent in the life she led, despite an early devastating setback.

Our next Fine Art & Antiques auction includes a copy of Geographical Fun: Being Humorous Outlines of Various Countries by William Harvey and Lilian Lancaster.  These witty & imaginative maps portray their country's as an anthropomorphic design depicting contemporary figures, historical elements and national symbols. 

They also tell us a lot about the Victorian British mindset!
