It is completely appropriate that Quentin Blake should have curated this small display as he has been a friend of Linda Kitson since she first started as a student at the Royal College of Art some fifty years ago.
Linda was the first officially commissioned female war artist as her drawings of the 1982 Falklands War attest. Other works recall the BBC’s 50th Anniversary and The Times when it was still in Fleet Street. Her more recent iPad drawings capture the architecture of the City of London.
