This month's post is over on "Ure Routes", where I discuss a 1943 painting of Hadrian's Wall which is now part of the University of Reading's Art Collections. Having found two letters relating to this artwork in the Classics Department archive some months ago, I was prompted to write up the bits of research I'd done, quoting rather liberally from the letters, after seeing a recent tweet of the painting.
Find out more about this work and Faith Ashford, the artist who created it, "Miss Asford's Painting".
