William Palmer Robins painted this watercolor in 1941. The picture shows a quiet brick building in a grove of trees. It’s one of the few pieces left from a big old monastery. Audley End sits nearby. It’s a huge Jacobean house. Robins leaves it out on purpose. The small brick ruin stands in sharp contrast. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
