The Schoolroom Giclée print by Vanessa Bell

In many ways this is both quintessential Bloomsbury and closely representative of Vanessa Bell’s work: the colours are strong, the patterns bold, the décor of a type Bell might herself have designed for the Omega Workshops.

This print was initially commissioned by Robert Wellington and John Piper for their second series of Contemporary Lithographs. Theirs was a venture which sought to offer work by acclaimed artists to places not known for their expenditure on art – to schools for instance. The school room depicted here is perhaps of a type not widely recognized, but it portrays the kind of place that Vanessa Bell, who was home educated, and who started a small home school for her own children, would have known.
