Genuinely touched by this. I'd argue art is the product of time & place so I’ll add the award is reflective of the excellent colleagues & students I am lucky to work with. The whole School makes working life lots of fun. ❤️ https://t.co/0dV1w3BLD9

Leybourne (1842-1884) died before he could be recorded singing his most famous song, but here’s Tommy Trinder’s version from the loose biographical film (1944) of Leybourne’s life. Altogether now….! https://t.co/pz8hJ5nyJH

According to The Dundee Advertiser he was “quite unlike the great majority of comic singers we are accustomed to see in Dundee, most of whom seem to think that to be vulgar is to be amusing.” (19/03/ 1867)

'Lazarus Breaks His Fast,' (c.1927) is the self-portrait Walter Sickert made after his recovery from suffering a stroke. After this illness, he began to use photographs as a basis for paintings and not just to help composition as he had in the 1890s.
