One of Vanessa Bell's great achievements was to make domesticity a worthy and valuable subject for painting. Of course, she didn't just paint her homes, she also filled them with decorated furniture, textiles, and ceramics. The catalogue calls her style 'domestic modernism', something which can be seen in her designs for rugs, cushions, and chair covers. There are several of these in the exhibition, including this 1924 needlepoint stitched by Ethel Grant, Duncan Grant's mother.
