This exhibition explores the friendship between Benjamin Britten, Peter Pears and Keith Grant, which began in 1967, and incorporates the works they owned by the artist.

Pears first saw Grant’s work at the Roland, Browse & Delbanco gallery in London, in 1967. From there, a friendship was formed and many of his works were bought by or gifted to Britten and Pears.

Now in his 90s, Keith Grant is one of few remaining living artists represented in their original art collection.
