Luckily, you don’t have to imagine it:
🧊 Our galleries are a perfect 21°C
🪑 We’ve got shade and deck chairs in the Sculpture Garden
🎟️ And yes, the Gardens are free

So come chill with us—literally—and soak up the art (indoors or outdoors).

When it’s over 30°C and you’re trying to remember what it was like… to feel cool.

Samuel Linley here isn’t lost in deep thought—he’s just mentally somewhere with air-con (or the 18th century equivalent...).

Join us online this Wed 2 Jul at 7pm for an exclusive online introduction to Rachel Jones: Gated Canyons with curator Jane Findlay.

Renowned for her striking use of colour and visceral mark-making, Jones challenges how we see and feel through paint.

These works — part of a series rarely seen in full — are on view now in Tirzah Garwood: Beyond Ravilious at Dulwich Picture Gallery until 26 May.

🐕 The Dog Show (originally The Sister-in-Law) is Garwood at her sharpest: rich textures, domestic detail, and just a hint of satire. The dogs’ coats alone are a masterclass in wood engraving.

🐊 The Crocodile (once titled The Daughter) shows a neat line of schoolgirls walking along a garden wall — their order gently broken by one girl reaching down to pet a dog. A moment of warmth in the middle of discipline.

🛁 In Two Sisters, a raised viewpoint gives us a curious, almost cinematic look at a bathroom scene. One sister dominates the foreground while the bath stretches upward behind her. Stillness? Tension? You decide.

These wood engravings were created in 1930 for a Curwen Press calendar that was never published — but Garwood used the opportunity to flex her full creative range. 🎨

👀 Sharp eyes, steady hands, and a quietly subversive sense of humour — Tirzah Garwood’s Relations series turns everyday family scenes into miniature masterpieces of observation. 🧵

Artworks that wouldn't look out of place in the Traitor's castle...
