Cedric Morris : Artist, Plantsman & Traveller

Heritage Open Day: Cedric Morris (1889 - 1982) was one of the most talented painters of the natural world in the 20th century. Come and see this exhibition which is the first major presentation of his work in the North East. A must for art lovers. Morris met his partner the artist Arthur Lett-Haines on Armistice Day in 1918 and in 1939 they established the East Anglian School of Painting and Drawing at Benton End, a rambling Tudor cottage in the Suffolk countryside.

Notable students at the school included Lucian Freud and Maggi Hambling and it was in the cottage’s gardens that Morris developed his lifelong interest in horticulture, subsequently becoming famous for breeding exotic varieties of Irises.
