. By this time, Watts had acquired a country home in Surrey – Limnerslease – around which he and his second wife, the designer Mary Watts, built a type of utopian settlement, which has recently been restored and opened to the public as Watts Gallery – Artists’ Village. By the end of his life Watts was a national figure, an inspirational artist who had found a meaningful role for art as a catalyst for social change and community integration.
Nicholas Tromans is curator at Watts Gallery. He has published widely on nineteenth-century British art, including the acclaimed Richard Dadd: The Artist and the Asylum.
Tromans … offers a frank, fair and ultimately endearing overview of Watts’ curious career and the complexities of his personality whilst conjuring a lively picture of the cultural, social and political climate.
