λ&nbspMARGARET GREEN (BRITISH 1925-2003) FIGURES RESTING Oil on canvas laid to board Signed (lower right) 20.5 x 26cm (8 x 10 in.) Please note measurements do not include the frame unless otherwise stated. Lionel Bulmer and Margaret Green - one the most celebrated painting partnerships of the twentieth century, moved from their London home in the 1950s to live at Stowmarket, in rural West Suffolk and from there the beaches of Southwold, the sandy dunes and bathers at Walberswick became a key subject for them. The critic, Ian Collins, once wrote that in Bulmer's paintings 'the season appears to be one of permanent summer, and leisure is always in the air.' Indeed, it is this same sentiment in Bulmer's sun-filled paintings that is repeatedly witnessed in the art history of East Anglia, which has attracted artists from far and wide to live and work in the coastal communities that grew to rival the artist colonies of Newlyn and St Ives.
