Provenance: 1946 Yvonne Kapp, inherited by Betty Lewis, thence by family descent. Quentin Bell (1910-1996): Painter, writer, teacher, potter and sculptor. Son of the art critic Clive Bell and the artist Vanessa Bell. Studied at Leighton School and during World War II was a member of the Political Warfare Executive. Held teaching positions at The Slade, Oxford University, Hull University, Sussex University. With Duncan Grant and Vanessa Bell, he painted extensive murals in Berwick Church, Sussex, close to where he lived at Firle. Yvonne Kapp was born in London to a German-Jewish family in 1903. Against her parents wishes, she married the artist Edmond Kapp and lived with him on the fringes of the intellectual-bohemian world. Their marriage ended in 1930 and she returned to London where she became acutely aware of and motivated by political developments in Europe. She campaigned against fascism and worked to support refugees, latterly becoming active in conditions for workers and women`s rights. In the mid 1930s Quentin Bell wrote of Kapp "When I fell in love with Yvonne it must have seemed, to adapt a phrase of Jane Austen`s, that I did so to "disoblige my family". In fact I had no ulterior motive, I just found her voice, her appearance and her mind immensely attractive".
