Vanessa Bell | Frances Spalding

1 post | 1 read | 1 to read

Vanessa Bell was a central figure within the Bloomsbury group and lent to it a stability and coherence it might otherwise have lacked. A talented artist, and famously portrayed by Miranda Richardson in the 2002 film The Hours, she held sway with her acuity, integrity and sense of humour. Yet she remained inscrutable, glimpses of her life only appearing through her more famous sister, Virginia Woolf.

Vanessa Bell | Frances Spalding

The artist Vanessa Bell is Virginia Woolf‘s sister. This is a companion catalogue to an exhibition running at MK Gallery (Milton Keynes, UK). The first time I saw Vanessa Bell‘s art I was struck by her style and how her art is painting, crafts and interior decorating. I love how this catalogue shows this. I would have liked more depth in the writing but the images of Bell‘s art make up for it. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

AnishaInkspill Vanessa Bell: A World of Form and Colour by Fay Blanchard didn't appear, and so I've posted this review as a blurb.

And I have Vanessa Bell by Frances Spalding and I'm excited about reading it next year. 3w
