Garden at Springfield (1927) by Edward Burra, Rye Art Gallery. springfield was the Burra's family home, on the northern outskirts of Rye. "The trees that stood close to the windows were almost his first subject, especially a gigantic cedar, the level upon level of whose blue branches seemed to be hiding something. A Miss Bradley, in Rye, gave him drawing lessons. He was small and weak. It was his imagination that grew." (Christopher Neve)

The Tunnel (1966) by Edward Burra. Owned by George Melly. "No one has made a more convincing case than Burra against finer feelings in landscape. Even the traffic must have seemed to him to have an energy which he lacked. He watched the countryside as though craving extremes, and painted it as though something terrible were about to happen." [Christopher Neve]
