A Welsh Rhapsody: The Life and Art of Ceri Richards Born in the small village of Dunvant, near Swansea, in 1903, Ceri Giraldus Richards emerged from a uniquely nurturing environment that would profoundly shape his artistic vision. His father, Thomas Coslett Richards, was not merely a tinplate worker but a man steeped in culture—a poet who penned verses in both Welsh and English, and a choir conductor who filled the home with music. This blend of industrial practicality and creative expression, coupled with a mother descended from a family of craftsmen, instilled in young Ceri an appreciation…
A chart of Ceri Richards's corpus mapped not by date but by subject. Spokes are what they painted; rings are when; and the threads between stars reveal the patrons and places that secretly connect them.
Each arm of the atlas gathers works by what they depict: portraits, sacred scenes, mythologies, and the scientific studies. Click a spoke to swing that cluster to the top.
Distance from the center marks time. The innermost ring is the earliest period; the outermost, the final years. Style matures as you move outward.
Coloured lines link works bound by the same patron, commission, or theme. Trace a context to watch related clusters light up across subjects.
