Mary Greensted TALK 'Ernest Gimson: Nature, Design and Craftsmanship'
Weds 10th Sept 2.15 - 3.15pm
Mary Greensted TALK 'Ernest Gimson: Nature, Design and Craftsmanship'
Ernest Gimson (1864-1919) settled in the Cotswolds in 1894 with Ernest and Sidney Barnsley. Like them, he was an architect, but also designed furniture, metalwork, plasterwork and embroideries and found inspiration from the local plants and flowers. This talk will look at this aspect of his work, focusing on his drawings and finished pieces.
