From an unpromising start as a Southport painter and decorator, Philip Connard rose to prominence as a successful Impressionist artist and a Royal Academician. This exhibition charts his career including a remarkable period as a war artist serving on the Navy’s first submarines to an important muralist who created magnificent decorations for the room housing Queen Mary’s dolls house.
This exhibition brings the work of an overlooked artist back into the spotlight, featuring examples of his work from our national collections.
