36. Artists, Siblings, Visionaries: The Lives And Loves Of Gwen And Augustus John
Moot

Explore the fascinating lives of Gwen and Augustus John – two brilliant yet contrasting artists. Augustus was bold, flamboyant, and celebrated in his time, while Gwen, reserved and introspective, was only fully recognised after her death. Yet both shared a turbulent temperament and a passion for pushing artistic boundaries. Through vivid storytelling, Judith Mackrell reveals their deep creative connection and lasting influence, painting a compelling portrait of two visionary siblings who helped shape the art of the early twentieth century.
