The arts are not just instantaneous pleasure - if you don’t like it, the artist is wrong. I belong to the generation which says if you don’t like it, you don’t understand and you ought to find out. Ethel Barrymore

Portrait of Lionel, Ethel, and John Barrymore for Rasputin and the Empress, 1932 ‘As I looked at them through the camera’, wrote Clarence Bull in 1968, ‘I got the shock of my life. They all looked alike. All looked alike no matter how I posed them.  The bond between them was both amazing and frightening.’
