Theodor Von Holst: Portraits and Self Portraiture
Artist-led workshop
 

Theodor von Holst (1810-1844) was the great-uncle of Gustav Holst. Born in London he was trained at the Royal Academy. He is increasingly recognized as a significant link between the artists Blake and Fuseli and the next wave of great British artists spearheaded by the Pre-Raphaelites (Dante Gabriel Rossetti was Holst’s greatest admirer). In this two hour practical workshop pupils will work with an artist to create responses to von Holst’s works which are part of the permanent collection at the Holst Birthplace Museum.

The workshop can be tailored to different key stages and individual needs if required.

A free downloadable resource pack is available with all bookings.
£150 per 2 hour session + £1 per pupil
