Assistant Curator Lucy West introduces the latest display in Gallery 12, Mary Beale: Experimental Secrets. It’s no secret that Mary Beale (1633-1699) is treasured in Dulwich Picture Gallery’s collection as the only historic female painter within its holdings. Yet, much less well known is that Beale was a highly experimental and technically pioneering painter, assisted by her husband and devoted studio manager, Charles Beale (1632-1705). Lucy’s lecture traces the ‘experimental secrets’ of Mary’s esteemed portraiture business, shedding light on an art world in seventeenth-century London where, as well as sharing secrets, artists began to withhold them too.

After his debut with Murder Before Evensong, Canon Clement returns in A Death in the Parish, the new novel from no. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author and all-around national treasure the Reverend Richard Coles.
It’s been a few months since murder tore apart the community of Champton apart. As Canon Daniel Clement tries to steady his flock, the parish is joined with Upper and Lower Badsaddle, bringing a new tide of unwanted change. But church politics soon become the least of Daniel’s problems. His mother – headstrong, fearless Audrey – is obviously up to something, something she is determined to keep from him. And she is not the only one. And then all hell breaks loose when murder returns to Champton in the form of a shocking ritualistic killing…
Richard Coles is a writer, broadcaster and an Anglican priest. He co-presents Saturday Live on BBC Radio 4 and appears, from time to time, on QI, Have I Got News For You, and Would I Lie To You? He writes regularly for the Sunday Times, and is the author of half a dozen books, including a bestselling autobiography, Fathomless Riches, and the bereavement bestseller The Madness of Grief, after the death of his partner, David Coles. Murder Before Evensong, the first book in the Canon Clement Mystery series, was an instant number 1 Sunday Times bestseller.
