Frederick Cayley Robinson’s masterpiece ‘Acts of Mercy’ will take centre stage in the first exhibition of his work for over 30 years. The four large-scale murals explore the strength of human spirit - through images of orphaned children and wounded First World War soldiers.
‘Acts of Mercy’ (1916-1920) was commissioned for the Middlesex Hospital and will be shown alongside other examples of Cayley Robinson paintings.
Frederick Cayley Robinson: Acts of Mercy runs from 14 July to 17 October.
