You didn’t let us down! Well done to everyone who guessed that this is a work by Frederic, Lord Leighton. What a stunning piece.

We're welcoming a new painting to the Art Gallery this week, kindly loaned by a private collector.

Here's a sneak peek... can you work out who painted it?

There's a lot more to the artwork than this little detail 😉

Leave your answers in the comments, and we'll reveal the answer and when you can see it in person very soon!

Artist Joy Green was enchanted by the coast, capturing both the power and fragility of these landscapes in her large-scale watercolours. Many of the scenes are instantly recognisable, featuring locations such as Whitby Abbey, Rosedale and the Scarborough coastline.

An exhibition of her work is now showing in Sitwell Nibbles Café Gallery at Woodend, with all work available to buy.
