Brooke and Badham - Observing Hastings

20th April to 7th July

At Hastings Museum & Art Gallery
This exhibition is a pictorial history of Hastings as seen through the eyes of the two artists W.H. Brooke (1772-1860) and E.Leslie Badham (1873-1945). In 1922 Badham was invited to study Hastings Museum's collection of sketches of the town between 1820 and 1840 which had been drawn by Brooke, and to compile a contemporary record of Hastings. This exhibition will bring the two collections together.
