Julian Gordon Mitchell is a contemporary British artist who, in his own words, “uses painting as a window into an imaginary, dreamlike world” which might be labeled surreal — perhaps not unlike Agincourt itself. This is one of very few works in the Community Collection purchased by the acquisitions committee from an English gallery.
