Winifred Nicholson (1893-1981) wanted, she said, ‘to paint pictures that can call down colours, so that a picture can be a lamp in one’s room, not merely a window’. Nicholson was profoundly interested in how prismatic colour transforms objects and their settings. The art historian, Jovan Nicholson, who is Winifred Nicholson’s grandson, explores this strand of her work.
