Rosalind Adams (1939-2015), wife of the late Gilbert Adams FRPS but known professionally by her maiden name Rosalind Thuillier, was an author, painter and photographer. Her works in this collection can be characterised by a bold use of colour and abstract design reminiscent of the Russian artist Lyubov Popova’s textile designs. In other works Rosalind balanced abstraction with figurative elements resulting in stylised Manhattan skylines and ‘imagined landscapes’. Rosalind’s works in this collection are primarily pastel or watercolour but there is also a quantity of semi-abstract charcoal studies.

Rosalind published a book on her father-in-law, ‘Marcus Adams: Photographer Royal’ (1985 which included many of Marcus Adams’ finest photographs,and a text describing the life, works, and techniques of the artist and photographer. She also published a book on her friend and fellow artist Graham Sutherland, ‘Graham Sutherland: Inspirations’ (The Lutterworth Press, 1982) and has featured in a BBC television programme ‘British Masters’ talking about Sutherland.
