I saw this painting in the Royal Academy yesterday, and was fascinated by it. I wasn't aware of this great artist before then! Thanks for setting this website up, as it seems to be the best place to see RE's work - I'd love to see a book of reproductions.

Richard submitted this painting as a Royal Academy Diploma Work.
