Sir George Clausen RA (1852 - 1944)
RA Collection: Art
179 mm x 257 mm
To celebrate our 250th birthday, we’re highlighting 250 beautiful, odd and inspiring objects from the RA Collection in 25 themes. In this edition – inspired by the beautiful cloud drawings of Tacita Dean, currently on display in her ‘LANDSCAPE’ exhibition – take a few minutes to drift through the clouds that have been etched, sketched, printed and painted throughout history.
Is it snowing where you are? Here are some of the ways that artists have captured beautiful wintery scenes over the past 250 years – just in case you haven’t seen enough this week.
The award-winning composer Nitin Sawhney offers an audio tour of favourite works from the RA Collection – from John Constable to Antony Gormley.
The RA’s founding President Joshua Reynolds may have shaken up the art world when he delivered his ‘Discourses’ lectures, but are they still relevant now? We take a closer look at what artists and art-lovers can learn from the series today.
