Click here to subscribeSIR KYFFIN WILLIAMS RA oil on canvas - a collage style depiction of the two Menai Bridges, 30 x 24 (Provenance: especially commissioned by Wales Gas in 2001 to celebrate the opening of the North Wales Gas Grid. The Board was apparently taken aback by the ingenuity of the painting, but disappointed as it had thought erroneously that the artist would have been able to depict the two bridges from the Straits in a conventional manner. The letter from the artist to the then owner illustrates Sir Kyffin's frustration at being unable to meet fully the criteria expected).

Sir Peter Blake (b. 1932). Memories of Place- Paris, 2005. Collage and mixed media. Signed and Inscribed . 'Memories of Place. 'Paris'. . A walk through the Tuileries gardens . from Place de la Concorde . to the Louvre. Peter Blake' along lower edge. 32cm x 26cm. Exhibited: Waddington Galleries, London, Peter Blake 1-10 (Collages, Construction, Drawings & Sculpture) & The Marcel Duchamp Paintings, . 19 October - 12 November 2005, Catalogue No. 8a, page 46, reproduced pages 25 and 46, detail on the front cover. Memories of Place - Paris was one of a group of eight collages on this theme, exhibited in Blake's one man show at Waddington Galleries in 2005. . He presented the exhibition as a numerical ascent, with each of the ten groups consisting of the number of works that corresponded with its catalogue number. In the Memories of Place series (No. 8) he assembles sentinal memorabilia collected from eight walks in England, France and America. In one he looks back to a day trip to Brighton many years ago with his two little girls, whilst in another he has assembled the debris from around the rocks outside David Hockney's beach house in Los Angeles. Each work is accompanied by a short narration which invites us to share his experience more vividly. Peter Blake is renowned for his love of gathering and collecting the ephemera of life, of memories, of dreams and whimsies, sometimes mingled with those of other historical fantasists. Possessions he regards as symbolic of his relationship with his world, carefully questioning the personal significance of each object in this respect. The scraps of tickets, fragments of plastic, driftwood, pebbles and sycamore leaf in A walk through the Tuileries Gardens are evocative and ephemeral souvenirs, gathered at the time and collated later perhaps with a whiff of romance. His image takes us, in turn, on a stroll down the wide gravel, under the autumnal trees, a lingering taste of saucisson and red wine on our palate and with a sudden impulse to take a turn on the Carroussel..
