Edwina Sandys with her artwork

1972 - A Churchill Chuckle At The Common Market: The Paintings Of Edwina Sandys, the 34 year old Grand-Daughter Of Sir Winston Churchill, evoke more of a broad Belly-laugh on-the Common Market than a discrete chuckle. It provides a welcome touch of light relief in a heavy situation. Her Paintings depict key National figures making the painful re-adjustments to fit in with the Common Market image, with more than a touch of flippant satire. The Paintings Will Be Exhibited At The Crane Art Gallery, Kings Road Chelsea during the crucial Referendum week beginning on May 28th. Edwina exhibits characteristic Churchillian audacity in her paintings, she shares her illustrious Grand-fathers views on European Unity and will be making an unwavering Yes herself but her paintings are unbiased - there are Pro and Anti comments made in them. Even the dignity of the Queen is swept away by Edwinas brush. The paintings will be selling at upwards of -200. Edwina is the daughter of Former Tory Minister, Lord Duncan-Sandys.
