Stan, in his 90th year, bases this on a lifetime’s admiration of Turner and the Lakes. An artist and former chairman of the Northern Branch of the Turner Society, he was the author of Turner and Revd. Dr. Whitaker (Towneley Hall Art Gallery, Burnley, 1982). He is planning next an exhibition on Turner and Cotman in North Wales. He has been invited to give a lecture at Plas Newydd, the James Wyatt National Trust house on Anglesey, in September 2009
