Cardiff Museum - 2

A whole room is devoted to Agustus John drawings and watercolours




Secrets of Amour, Augustus John






Dorelia in Eastern Dress, Augustus John




The Japanese Doll, Gwen John.

In the corner of the next room are five paintings by Gwen John. During all the time we were there, this was the busiest corner in the Museum.






Girl in a Blue Dress, Gwen John





The Little Interior, Gwen John






A Corner of the Artist's room, Gwen John






Girl in Profile, Gwen John





Girl in a Green Dress, Gwen John





Mere Poussain Seated at a Table, Gwen John





Day Leaving, Sean Scully






A reconstructed thing, Lois Willliams  (made out of one thread of spun and intertwined wool)






Oval Sculpture, Barbara Hepworth





Edward De Waal






Vessel, Shozo Michikawa





and another view




Gordon Baldwin





and another view.


A new wing full of contemporary art will open shortly. It will certainly be worth a visit.

  1. All sounds good. I think Colin's family gave their Gwen John letters to the Cardiff museum. Shame his sister inherited the GJ painting.
