Redmore’s technical prowess is perhaps most evident in his command over atmosphere and texture. Redmore excelled at creating interiors that felt lived-in and warm, using soft, diffused light to highlight the textures of fabric, wood, and porcelain. While he may not have achieved the widespread fame of his more flamboyant contemporaries, Redmore’s contribution to the British tradition of genre painting is undeniable.

Walter Goodin (1907-1992) wasn’t a name that immediately leaps to mind when discussing the titans of 20th-century British art. Born in Hull, Goodin’s early life was deeply rooted in the maritime traditions of his hometown. However, Goodin wasn't solely confined to coastal scenes; he possessed an equally keen eye for urban landscapes, particularly the industrial heartland of Hull, where he spent much of his working life as a clerk.
