It's Day 1 of our Annual Sale!
Azaleas, a watercolour by Edward Bawden is one of many special works to buy @fryartgallery today. Bawden was born in Braintree in 1903, and was perhaps more firmly rooted in Essex than any other artist represented in the NW Essex Collection at the Fry. We open at noon.
