Leon Kossoff: Drawing from Painting
måndag-tisdag-torsdag--söndag- 10:00 - 18:00
onsdag- 10:00 - 21:00
Description:
In 1936, at the age of ten, Leon Kossoff found his way from Hackney to the steps of the National Gallery. At first, never having seen a painting before, he was awestruck. Later, he said, 'It seemed as though all the streets of London led there.'
The paintings were removed during the war, though there were momentary sightings of works which, together with the concerts of Myra Hess, brought comfort to the people of war-torn London.
