This autumn, Tate Britain will celebrate the extraordinary five-decade creative partnership between Vanessa Bell (1879-1961) and Duncan Grant (1885-1978), two of the most influential British artists of the 20th Century. Associated with the trailblazing Bloomsbury Group, Bell and Grant’s radical experimentation and unconventional approach to life reshaped art, literature and societal thought in Britain.

This summer the National Gallery’s flagship primary school programme, Take One Picture, reimagines Canaletto’s Venice.

This year’s painting is Canaletto’s A Regatta on the Grand Canal (about 1740) .
