Stan, in his 93rd 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).

'An Art Refined'

A stunning exhibition by the Lancashire nonagenarian artist Stanley Warburton - a wonderful collection of oils and watercolours by this talented artist and one time friend of L.S.Lowry. A must for all Lancastrians who are interested in their heritage.
