Whitfield Fine Art Gallery are marking their move from New Bond Street to Dering Street with a major retrospective of Welsh artist Thomas Nathaniel Davies - the first in over twenty years.
Thomas Nathaniel Davies (1922-1996) was born in Dowlais and studied at Cardiff College of Art before serving in World War 2. He went on to teach art in Cardiff, Newton Abbott and Torquay; both the grey steel town and the green Devonshire countryside are reflected in his work. It ranges from portraits and landscapes to abstracts, spot paintings and sculptures. He is described by the gallery as 'somewhat overlooked but important', with works in the Victoria & Albert Museum and National Library of Wales collections.
Practical info Times: Mon-Sat, 10-5.30, until Friday 19 June
Location: Whitfield Fine Art, 23 Dering Street, W1S 1AW
Image: The Rhondda Bus, 1948
