WAR HORSE

Congratulations to the two latest winners of the Larson-Juhl scholarship. First place went to Justin George from George the Framer, Crymych in Wales. Second place was awarded to Dee Davidson from Dancing Light Art Gallery & Picture Framing in Edinburgh. fineart.co.uk Apart from framing, Lyn Thompson from Whistlefish in Cornwall is also passionate about horses, and particularly Clydesdales. As part of last November’s Armistice Day activities, she and one of her favourites, Whitehills Bleu, took part in a spectacular and very moving memorial event that paid tribute to the eight million horses and countless mules and donkeys who were lost during the conflict. The gala raised funds for The War Horse Memorial Fund - which Larson-Juhl was very pleased to support. Donations can still be made via

CONGRATULATIONS!

THIS GIRL CANFORD

4walls is always keen to hear how new ventures are faring. We reported on Lucy Shapland and Annabelle Dodd’s enterprise Canford & Co back in 2016, when they opened a small shop in Fulham, West London, offering framing and antique china and glass.

They quickly outgrew the shop and have recently moved to a larger one around the corner in Lillie Road, in the middle of a line of 20 antiques shops. Interior designers and picture dealers come shopping down the street, so the duo are hoping to benefit from increased footfall and new customers. Annabelle told 4walls that: “Making large frames is now logistically much easier than in our little old shop!”

Good luck with the next chapter!
