Things of Beauty - What Two Sisters Did for Wales
Publisher: National Museum of Wales, 2018
Edition: 1st UK, 1st impression
Binding: Paperback
The unique tale of how, in the early twentieth century, two deeply religious but very wealthy heiresses turned their remote mid Wales manor house into an artistic haven. Gregynog became the place to be for fashionable luminaries to engage in earnest social and cultural debate. The sisters also bequeathed their unimaginably rich collection of paintings to the National Museum of Wales (the seeds were sown when they served as nurses in France in WW1). This book is a pictorial delight in very fine condition with no blemishes or marks at all. Still smells new. Protected in inert plastic.
