Artist
Bayes
Bayes is an Art Brut artist. 32 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This artist painted watercolours around London in the 1940s. They captured quiet spots like The Gateway at Royal Naval College, Greenwich, The Garden at York House in Twickenham, and London Dock, Wapping. Each sheet shows empty quays, old terraces, and misty river edges with spare, exact brushwork. Tap into Chiswick Mall to stand on the towpath they froze in paint.
