Work in Progress: From Paper to Paint

Our annual winter works on paper display focuses on the importance of drawing as a preparatory stage for work completed in another media. The five artists featured are Frank Brangwyn, William McTaggart, John Phillip, DG Rossetti and William Quiller Orchardson. Highlights include a drawing by WQ Orchardson, shown alongside his oil sketch for Voltaire, and an exquisite study by Rossetti for one of the attendants in his masterpiece Dante’s Dream on the Day of the Death of Beatrice, also on show. The display also includes a rare pen and ink sketch by William McTaggart, shown in stark contrast to the colourful coastal images of children seen in the Victoria Gallery.
