Eastern Bridal Procession
Sir Frank Brangwyn was born in Bruges, the son of a tapestry
designer. This heritage is perhaps evident in the tapestry
-like decorative arrangement of closely woven colours in paintings
such as this one.
Brangwyn moved to England to take up an apprenticeship
with the designer and craftsman, William Morris. He became a very
successful mural painter and a series of murals celebrating the
achievements of the British Empire at the Guildhall in Swansea are
considered to be his masterpiece. His work was very popular in
America.
