At some point during my father's two years on Sark, 1933-1935, he gave this painting to Joan Miller, who worked during several winters as the island's relief pharmacist. Signed, but not dated, the picture might or might not be a local Sark scene, but certainly shows the influence of China which Mervyn had only recently left behind.

Regular readers of this blog will be familiar with the energy and detail which Sebastian used to keep us up-to-date with any news of his father's work, particularly during the centenary year, 2011. His sudden death has been a great shock to his friends and family but the promotion of his father's work will continue under the guidance of his brother and sister, Fabian and Clare. I worked with Sebastian on the blog and will continue to add details of events and new publications as well as any other news when it becomes available. Alison Eldred
