Landscape Wharfedale

Richard may have submitted this painting to the Slade Sketch Club monthly competition:

"I sent in a landscape or two and one of these called forth the only memorable saying by Professor Tonks “This student is being influenced by painters who have not been dead long enough to be respectable”. I had found Cezanne. Tonks could not understand Cezanne. He said he was just flat “and that’s that.”" [from chapter 24 of Richard's memoir "As a Twig is Bent".]
