The Good Samaritan by Edward Stott

The Royal Academy Exhibition of 1910 was an art exhibition held in London. It was the hundred and fifty first Annual Exhibition held by the British Royal Academy of Arts. It took place at the Royal Academy's headquarters at Burlington House in Piccadilly from 5 May to 9 August 1910. It featured many of the leading artists and architects of the Edwardian Era.[1]

Vespers by John Singer Sargent, 1910

Critics often expressed a degree of nostalgia for the late Victorian era when they assessed the paintings exhibited. Amongst the works on display were Edward Stott's The Good Samaritan. In portraiture Hubert von Herkomer displayed four pictures. [2] John Singer Sargent exhibited Vespers, now in the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool. [3]
