Thanks for a great industry #OnlineArtExchange for Fresh Air For The Potteries @PotteriesMuseum 🏭 Next week is women in photography for Portraits to Dream In at @NPGLondon 📸 'Baling Hay' by Evelyn Mary Dunbar (1906–1960) 📷 @AmgueddfaCymru
🥳 Happy belated birthday to William Shakespeare, who celebrated his 460th birthday this week! If you're looking for something to do on our closed days, why not pay a visit to the renowned Chandos painting of the literary legend?
My goodness, @Kim_Mawhinney Colin Davisson’s extraordinary #SilentTestimony exhibition about the legacy of the Troubles is even more powerful in this little room in the @NPGLondon than it was in a big @UlsterMuseum gallery. Absolutely searing. 1/2
Incredible to view these @colin_davidson works this morning in @NPGLondon. So incredibly powerful and moving
Taking a moment for @colin_davidson and the @NPGLondon, where 'Silent Testimony’ is now showing. It will always be our honour that this powerful exhibition was first displayed at @UlsterMuseum and now even more people get to learn the stories behind those portraits. @WAVETrauma.
Despite living a century apart, 'Portraits to Dream In' brings together two of the most influential women in the history of photography: #FrancescaWoodman and #JuliaMargaretCameron. 📸💭💙 📍 @NPGLondon 🗓 Until 16 June 2024 #NationalPortraitGallery

My portrait of John Sentamu commissioned by the National Portrait Gallery. Painted at Bishopthorpe Place 2021- 2022 @NPGLondon
Celebrating Shakespeare today. This is the Chandos portrait, painted c.1600, but whether it is actually William himself we’ll never know. Named after the 3rd Duke of Chandos, who was the previous owner, you can now see it in @NPGLondon
Delighted that so many people will see the exhibition & read the stories of those painted. They are the peacemakers, they are our beacons of hope. Brave & true. Thank you Colin for your unrelenting dedication in giving voice to the legacy of the Troubles on the lives of so many.
'Silent Testimony' continues at @NPGLondon London until 23 February 2025. Thank you @SmartsAgency for the video.

One of my favourites at the National Portrait Gallery - Virginia Woolf painted by Vanessa Bell. @NPGLondon #portraits #art #paintings
Happy birthday William Shakespeare! Below is the only portrait with a good claim to have been painted from life - definitely worth a visit to see it at the beautifully refurbished @NPGLondon (it was their first acquisition when founded in 1856!) #Art #Heritage #Culture
Portraits to Dream In @NPGLondon: Julia Margaret Cameron (1815-1879) and Francesca Woodman (1958-1981) in conversation across a century. Made me think completely differently about photography. Some truly amazing works here that I’ll be wanting to return to again and again.
