S T B E T HNAL G R E EN R H A C K N E Y R D H O X T O N S T C U RT A I N R O l f h a William Crosbie ‘In the Tea House’ Although Panter and Hall has long since developed a much wider spectrum of artistic interests, it was with Scottish 20th C. Painting that they started in their Shepherd Market space in 2000, so it is nice to see them returning to their roots with such a rich and varied survey of historical and contemporary Scots work. Among the earlier pieces I was particularly struck by the delicious William Crosbie (there’s an underrated artist!) female nude ‘In the Tea House’, the James Ferguson portrait of Peploe and the little-known Neil Russell’s landscape from the 1940s, while among the many excellent and more recent things Norman Edgar’s still-life is a revelation.
