With Christiana Payne, Professor Emerita of History of Art, Oxford Brookes University

Samuel Palmer's trees are enchanted and otherworldly, yet rooted in close observation. This talk will show how his flowering horse chestnuts, ancient oaks and fruit-laden apple trees contributed to the sense of wonder and abundance in his visionary pastorals.

The event will take place online on Zoom and a link to join the event will be shared in advance by email.

Booking is essential and tickets are £4 each.
