In a special talk (tickets sold separately – BOOK HERE), celebrated curator and aesthete Stephen Calloway invites us into the fascinating world of self-fashioning – revealing how William Nicholson’s evolving persona, captured in portraits and photographs across his long career, became one of his most enduring works of art.
