'Lively' - The Times They seemed to be polar opposites . . . Augustus: vivid, volatile and promiscuous. He was a hero among romantics and bohemians, celebrated as one of the great British talents of his generation. Gwen's art was magnificent, but she was also more reserved, and as a woman she struggled for the recognition which has only come to her now, years after her death. Artists, Siblings, Visionaries is a riveting story of love, infidelity, betrayal, and of two extraordinary siblings whose art and lives subverted society's expectations.
