In this beautifully detailed exhibition, the more you look, the more you’ll see…
Over many years, self-taught artist Franklin has been creating artwork inspired by the poems, letters, books and lives of the Brontës. In this special exhibition, he delves into their make-believe worlds, through an intricate, gothic style of drawing achieved with the use of a magnifying glass.
Each picture takes Franklin between two months and a year to complete. He creates different forms with intricate detail, including jewel and textile-like patterns, shadow-shaped dreamy figures and elemental beings – all based upon the Brontës and their world.
