Original oil on paper Polo Pony at work artwork by JJ Soames

A great-niece to the 19th Century Darlton painter Henry Calvert, founding Treasurer of the Manchester Academy of Fine Arts, JJ Soames draws inspiration from old Masters, Legends, and dark Fairytale. She continues to collaborate with Historic England on the 'Missing Pieces Project' which as ever, inspires the work on display
