A glimpse into forgotten Dagenham artist Henry Gillard Glindoni
Highlighting Dagenham's first professional artist, Henry Gillard Glindoni, who achieved success in his lifetime but has since faded into relative obscurity. Valence House displays preliminary sketches by the artist alongside pieces on loan from national institutions. This is part of Art Fund's Weston Loan Programme, a UK-wide grant programme designed to directly fund and empower smaller museums to borrow major works from national or major lending museums and galleries.
