London Landscape 1948

London Landscape 1948London Landscape by James Fitton, c. 1948. Street scene. Fitton wrote on the 17th August 1948: The setting of the painting is in Brixton. I passed it one day on my way into London and was fascinated by the window full of bills on the derelict shop front it seemed to be blooming like a flower in such a drab setting. I came back the following morning about 6. 30am and using the roof of my car as an easel, I worked on it until the place became too busy
