Exhibited
The Bloomsbury Workshop, Images of Vanessa - Paintings and Drawings by and of Vanessa Bell (1879 - 1961), 8 June-29 July 1993
This head of Vanessa Bell was almost certainly painted in the summer of 1913 when the artists were at a camp at Brandon, near Thetford. There are similarly expressive heads painted on the same holiday.
