A detail of the previous painting, showing the head of the procession. The great guardian of the Scuola della Passione walks under a canopy carrying the relic of the blood of Christ, between two lines of officials of the Scuola della Passione, each with a very long candle.
**The Blood of Christ**
Easter is _the_ most important event in the Christian calendar, and that was no different in the times of the Republic of Venice.
It should therefore be no surprise that several events took place during the week of Easter, and […]

In the latest show, we visit a place in the heart of #Bristol, the Seven Stars pub hides a story that helped change the world. In the late #1700s, its landlord and visiting #abolitionists turned this unassuming tavern into a hub in the fight to end the slave trade. #History #Podcast #Slavery #Change

Two women are posed closely beneath a fruiting branch in an aristocratic garden setting. At left, a pale-skinned seated woman wears a wide straw hat trimmed with flowers, pearl earrings, and a warm brown satin gown with white lace sleeves and light blue ribbon bows down the bodice. She gathers oranges and red berries into a white apron lifted across her lap. Her posture is upright yet relaxed, and she looks off to her left. At right, a brown-skinned woman stands slightly behind and above her, wearing a black dress with white lace trim, layered necklaces, earrings, and a jeweled headpiece with feathers. She raises one arm to pluck an orange while her other hand rests on the seated woman’s shoulder. Their touching hands, shared fruit, and overlapping bodies create a strong sense of connection and mutual presence. The painting’s power is in that intimacy. The composition has long been read through hierarchical labels, but visually the two sitters are linked by gesture, ornament, and scale. The standing woman meets our gaze with striking steadiness and occupies the upper right of the composition with authority. The fruit-gathering motif can suggest pastoral leisure, abundance, and cultivated refinement, yet it also stages a social relationship. The Wadsworth notes that another version (in Belgium) was later altered to erase the woman of African descent, making this canvas especially important as evidence of Black presence within 18th-century British elite portraiture and as a reminder of how art history has been edited, renamed, and reinterpreted over time. Stephen Slaughter was an English portrait painter associated with elite patrons in Britain and Ireland, later serving as Surveyor and Keeper of the King’s Pictures under George II. Slaughter’s careful handling of satin, lace, pearls, and skin tones supports a composition whose historical significance extends to now as a rare and compelling image of closeness, status, and Black visibility in Georgian Britain.

Oil painting for a boat race. In the foreground, a wide canal, crossed by two bridges, lines with spectators. On the other side of the canal, a line of multi-story houses. On the canal, numerous gondolas, each rowed by two men, with a central cabin, where one or two women sit.
**An almost unknown painter**
Venice in the 1700s had its fair share of great and famous painters, but just as in any other craft or art, only a few became famous.
There were painters, even in the 1700s, of whom we don't even know the names, and many […]
