Retrospective of James Edward Duggins

First retrospective of James Edward Duggins

Leamington Spa Art Gallery & Museum
2 December 2011 until 12 February 2012

A very special exhibition will take place at Leamington Spa Art Gallery & Museum from 2 December 2011 until 12 February 2012, titled James Edward Duggins (1881 – 1968): A Warwickshire Impressionist. This exhibition provides a unique opportunity to see a wide range of works by the popular, but now often forgotten, local artist and photographer James Edward Duggins.

Duggins was born in Cubbington in 1881. He moved to St Ives at the age of 23 to study under the British Impressionist painters. In 1906 he returned to Leamington Spa to establish a photographic studio. He continued to paint and sketch scenes inspired by the Warwickshire and Cotswold countryside throughout his life, exhibiting regularly at the Royal Academy.
