1934
Royal Academy of Arts presented Exhibition of British Art, c. 1000–1860 in London in 1934. The exhibition surveyed British art from about 1000 to 1860. Source title variants and the commemorative catalogue refer to one exhibition; distinct catalogue numberings remain explicit. Documented examples include George Stubbs’s Captain Samuel Sharpe Pocklington with His Wife, Pleasance, and possibly His Sister, Frances (1769; oil on canvas) and John Crome’s Moonlight on the Yare (c. 1816/1817; oil on canvas). The reconstructed checklist is partial; exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
