Nestled within South Downs National Park in East Sussex, the Seven Sisters cliffs at Birling Gap showcase nature's masterpiece in pure white chalk. Directly east of Studland lies Old Harry Rocks, a collection of mesmerizing chalk stacks that stand tall against the crashing waves below. With its unique composition and texture, it has been used as an artistic medium throughout history to depict various subjects like Nude Young Woman Sitting or Crouching Figure. Offering a bird's-eye perspective, an aerial view captures the famous White Horse below Bratton Camp—an Iron Age hillfort—etched into the landscape with precision using white chalk. In 1875, detailed studies were made using charcoal, white chalk, and pencil on paper to explore the male figure's form and anatomy in artistry. Delving deeper into artistic expression through Studies for a Flagellation: A Man Scourging and Head of Christ showcases black and white chalk alongside pastel techniques to convey emotion and narrative powerfully.
