by Cicely Hey
Three reminiscent talks by different speakers on Sickert's personality and working methods
When Cicely Hey first met Sickert in the early 1920s she was a young artist who had just left Art School. At that time Sickert was at the end of his so-called 'Iron Bedstead' period - she was the last model to be posed on that iron bedstead that had been seen in so many of his paintings since he returned from Venice in 1905.
