Evelyn Dunbar

Evelyn was the only full-time woman war artist in World War II. She was a quiet and fragile nature lover but when war came, she stepped up and pushed herself forward to represent woman’s war work.

Join Oswin and Carla as we celebrate Evelyn’s life and art alongside the eminent art historian Frances Spalding.
