The Expatriates
Exhibition: 4 April 1985 - 16 June 1985

During the last two decades of the nineteenth century and the first three of the twentieth century, many artists left these shores to seek an identity and a maturity in their work which they hoped could be sustained in a climate where there was more understanding.
