Watts Gallery
Whilst the photographer Julia Margaret Cameron the most celebrated of the seven Pattle sisters, this exhibition uncovers their collective impact through artistic experimentation, intellectual exchange, and the creation of a cultural salon at Little Holland House in Kensington. Here, artists, writers, scientists, musicians, and politicians gathered, drawn into their orbit and the visionary painter G F Watts, who lived and worked amongst them.
Through rarely seen portraits, photographs, possessions and new research, this exhibition looks at how their influence extended from India to Kensington, and from the salons of Little Holland House to the Bloomsbury Group.
