Exhibition | Elizabeth and Stanhope Forbes: A Marriage of Art
Saturday 5 April – Sunday 29 June 2025 | Worcester City Art Gallery and Museum
A sumptuous selection of artworks by the power couple of British Impressionism, Elizabeth and Stanhope Forbes.
The exhibition includes intricate portraits and landscapes to lose yourself in, many on loan from Penlee House Gallery & Museum and visiting Worcester for the first time. Also featured is the local favourite by Stanhope Forbes; Chadding on Mounts Bay.
Elizabeth Forbes achieved international recognition but soon became overshadowed by her male contemporaries. This exhibition aims to put these two outstanding artists on an equal footing and show the importance of both to the development of British Impressionism.
