EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the renowned British artist Lucy Kemp-Welch (1869-1958) in her studio, immersed in her creative world. Kemp-Welch was a celebrated painter, best known for her exquisite equestrian portraits. In this image, she is seen at her easel, intently focusing on her latest work-in-progress, with a palette of vibrant colors at her side. The studio is filled with the soft light filtering through the windows, casting long shadows and illuminating the various stages of her artwork. Among the many intriguing details in the photograph, there are several noteworthy elements. Horses, a common subject in Kemp-Welch's paintings, can be seen in the background, their forms captured in various stages of completion. One horse, in particular, appears to be the focus of her current painting, as evidenced by the large canvas and the discernible brushstrokes. Additionally, the photograph reveals a few intriguing glimpses into Kemp-Welch's personal life. A copy of Anna S. Sewell's beloved novel "Black Beauty" lies on a nearby table, perhaps serving as inspiration for her equestrian subjects. Furthermore, several World War I posters adorn the walls, hinting at the artist's patriotic involvement during that time. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the life and work of Lucy Kemp-Welch, a trailblazing artist who dedicated her career to capturing the beauty and grace of horses. Her studio, filled with the tools of her trade and the fruits of her labor, stands as a testament to her unwavering passion and commitment to her craft.
