Vanessa Bell ‘Interior with a Table’ 1921.

(This picture was painted at La Maison Blanche, a villa just outside St Tropez which the Bell’s rented from friend Rose Vildrac. They stayed there for five months from October 1921, with Bell’s children Quentin, Julian and Angelica. Bell wrote ‘It’s delicious to be in the South – one forgets how nice it is – all the colours and the light and space and everything looking so baked through’.)
