The final painting of today’s Artle –
sent me on a brief quest to find out if the artist, Cecilia Beaux, was Catholic. Alas, nothing to be found with a quick search; only that the next year she painted anti-Catholic George Clemenceau (the first painting in today’s Artle).
But her painting of Admiral Sir David Beatty (the second painting in today’s Artle) is breathtaking.
