LOCAL art historian and curator Gwen Yarker, right, is giving a lecture at Dorset County Museum in Dorchester on the watercolour paintings of Henry Joseph Moule on January 30.
Henry Joseph Moule produced several thousand paintings of the Dorset countryside, particularly around Dorchester.
An antiquarian and author, he was first curator of the newly built Dorset County Museum. Thomas Hardy and Moule were close associates and through Moule’s paintings this lecture will illustrate the Dorset they both knew and loved.
The talk is free of charge but a donation of £3 is encouraged. Doors open at 7pm and the talk will start at 7.30pm. See dorsetcountymuseum.org or telephone 01305 262735.
