Cyril Beaumont painted a dance scene in the mid-1900s. He helped publish books on Serge Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes and tried painting their shows. He sold one painting for ten pounds after putting it in his shop window. Beaumont never thought he’d be an artist. He was surprised when a friend praised his work in a conversation. Look up the artist Beaumont, Cyril William OBE next.
