feeling, not
a gallery.
Choose a mood and the room itself answers — the light cools or warms, the air changes pace, and only the works that carry that feeling step forward from the dark. Everything else recedes into shadow.

The Life and Career of Daniel Dodd Daniel Dodd worked as an English painter and engraver during the middle of the eighteenth century. His presence in the London art scene became established through his membership in the Free Society of Artists. He first appeared as an exhibitor at Spring Gardens in 1761, a venue where he continued to show his work until 1780. His professional activity spanned from 1752 until around 1780. His life was
tied to the shifting spaces of the era, moving from Old Ford, near Bow, into the heart of London. This movement mirrored the changing nature of his output, as he navigated the demands of portraiture and the technical requirements of engraving. He was part of a family of artists; his son, D. P. Dodd, and his daughter both exhibited with the Free Society of Artists starting in 1768.Early Life and Professional Training Dodd’s early years…
