MAEVE GILMORE

In 2010 during a visit to Sebastian Peake's home, Viktor Wynd noticed a powerful oil painting in the bathroom, and was gripped by it. Over the course of many months and subsequent visits, Mr Wynd learnt that this was the work of Mervyn Peake's wife, a talented artist in her own right. He was eventually taken to a secret location where he was shown a hoard of her paintings in the attic, untouched and unseen since her death in 1983.

In celebration of Mervyn Peake's centenary, The Last Tuesday Society are delighted to present a selling exhibition of drawings and oil paintings by Mervyn Peake & his wife, Maeve Gilmore. This will be the first time Maeve Gilmore's work has been exhibited in over forty years.
