Some Favourites From The Tate Britain

Walking around the Tate Gallery I found myself some old and new favourites, I actually live only 5 minutes from the Tate and have been there numerous times (on dates or with school) but on my recent visit I really took time to look at things and there seemed to be alot more to see since my last visit and a much better ambience to the place. here's a list of all the artists that I enjoyed the most and couldn't take a sneaky picture of.

John Constable 'Sketch for Hadleigh Castle' 1828

John Constable 'The Sea near Brighton' 1826

John Sargent 'Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose' 1885

Francis Bacon 'Study for a Portrait' 1952

Henry Moore 'Draped Seated Woman' 1957-1958

                                  

Henry Moore's Tube Shelter Sketches done in 1940

Don McCullin Homeless man in Spitalfields market 1969

John Martin 1789 -1854 (Probably one of my favourite artists of all time, his paintings are biblical and apocalyptic and you really have to see them in person!)

Peter Doig 'Ski Jacket' 1994

JMW Turner 'Norham Castle Sunrise' 1845

JMW Turner 'Rough Sea' 1840-1845

Lucian Freud 'Girl with a kitten' 1947

Theodore Roussel 'The Thames from Chelsea'  1890

Nigel Henderson 'Wig stall Petticoat Lane' 1952

A little Sunday visit to the New Look Tate Britain

The new Stunning ceiling

lots of Henry Moore sculptures

Jacob and The Angel by Jacob Epstein (When I first saw this sculpture years ago I actually gasped, still by far my favourite)

great opportunity to take some sneaky pics too ;)

loved The Chapman Collection the most as it was such a surprise that they were all characters from Mcdonalds 

 Lucian Freud, 'Girl with a Kitten' 1947
