Mary Fedden (1915 – 2012) is celebrated for her colourful still lifes and flower paintings. She married Julian Trevelyan in 1951, living with him at the Durham Wharf studios and travelling with him to Africa, the Mediterranean and beyond. This display explores how her style was influenced by their 35 year partnership.
