TitlePhotographs of 'Things Seen and Things Remembered' for Highbury Quadrant Junior School
Date[1955]
DescriptionThree black and white photographs of Annan's mural 'Things Seen and Things Remembered' commissioned by the London County Council (LCC) for Highbury Quadrant Junior School. The mural features semi-abstract chickens and cockerels. The first photograph in the file features Annan appearing to put the finishing touches to the mural, possibly for the purposes of press photography (/1). The photographs are annotated by [Annan?] on the reverse with contextual details about the work, including the artist, title, location and size of the piece. One photograph is mounted on card (/3).
NotesThe commission has been dated using letters from Annan's correspondence files. It was possibly commissioned by the LCC as part of their post-war Patronage of the Arts Scheme.
