Isabel Rawsthorne @ Fry Art Gallery, Saffron Walden

The Many Sides of Isabel Rawsthorne showcases the often-revolutionary work of an artist who ‘disappeared from the history of art’. Rawsthorne (1912-1992) changed her surname with each of her three marriages (Delmer, Lambert, Rawsthorne) and became known as the muse of twentieth-century giants such as Jacob Epstein, Pablo Picasso, André Derain, Alberto Giacometti and Francis Bacon rather than as a multi-faceted artist in her own right.

The exhibition, Regeneration, also features a selection of Rawsthorne’s portraits and still-lifes given to the Fry Art Gallery by the artist’s family,
