About
Discover our recent acquisition ‘The Virgin and Child with Saints Louis and Margaret’, currently on display in Room 53 of our Sainsbury Wing, in two different ways. First, listen to a brief talk, then respond by making your own artwork in a short drawing session led by artist Robin-Lee Hall. Please have to hand a sharp pencil, paper and a rubber.
Sometimes we might suggest using different drawing or craft materials, so, if you are able to, please keep a pencil case of different colours, a ruler and a pair of scissors nearby, as well as anything else you might like to experiment with.
The session will take place online and will last about one hour.
