Inspired by the opening lines of Percy Bysshe Shelley’s 1820 poem of the same title, The Cloud has grace of line that epitomises the model of classically informed beauty. Richardson’s figure successfully follows the serpentine line of Art Nouveau sculpture while also echoing the influence of British New Sculpture with its focused attention to bodily detail and surface articulation. A bronze version of The Cloud was cast in 1987 and can be seen in the formal garden between the Brighton Town Hall and the Brighton Library.Art Nouveauplaster patinated with paint and ground coppersculpture, female figure, charles douglas richardson, the cloud, cd richardson, c douglas richardson, percy bysshe shelley, poem, art nouveau, new sculpture, flowers

Clarice Beckett, Reflected Lights, Beaumaris Bay c.1930-31, oil on composition board, 18.2 x 24 cm. Bayside City Council Art and Heritage Collection. Purchased 2014. oil on composition boardcoast, beaumaris, bay, water, reflections, clarice beckett, beaumaris bay, lights, meldrum school, painting

Painted from Beaumaris Cliffs looking over to Mentone this work is a characteristic example of Beckett's ability to create a sense of place with an economy of means. The bands of floated colour create a flattened 'modern' space while still rendering a truthful impression of the location. oil on boardbeach, coast, cliff, path, tree, clarice beckett, beaumaris, beaumaris bay, bay, bayside, water, meldrum school, painting, mentone
