LETTER: Towner has got things spot on
The title comes from Eastbourne’s best known artist, whose nostalgic and beautiful watercolours and wood engravings show Sussex and indeed England at its most beautiful. Many of the works have never been on public display before and are on loan from institutions and collectors from all over the world.
It features work by contemporaries such as John and Paul Nash, Barnett Freedman, Helen Binyon and Thomas Hennell to name but a few.
