Brangwyn was of the first British artists to gain an International reputation, the first British artist to be given a retrospective at the Royal Academy during his lifetime, an artist whose murals can be seen in USA, Canada and the UK. In 1914 he was described as ‘the acknowledged master of modern decoration… both in his own country and abroad’ and is reputed to have produced over 12,000 works of art. But, apart from the huge murals, where can we see these works? Where are they? Are they all hidden away?

The lecture hopefully provides a world-wide whirlwind tour and explanation – not of course forgetting Walthamstow’s very own William Morris Gallery and Brangwyn Gift.
