Dean Martin at the Sands Hotel — ca. late 50's

[jerrylewis-thekid]

And Sinatra was billed under Jerry Lewis and Danny Thomas in 1956. Dean was on the guest list but didn't attend. Maybe maybe Dean was working on "10000 Bedrooms"? But even though it was 1956, it was only natural to invite him wherever Jerry was present! Two people who hate each other should be kept apart, right? December 15, 1956

The Sands, Newquay

Artist: Charles Conder (Australian, 1868-1909)

Date: 1906

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia

Description

In August 1906, Charles Conder travelled to Newquay on the Cornish coast. He had spent the previous two months at Whitehall Sanatorium recovering from a stroke, and hoped that the sea air and rest would enable him to begin painting again.

Conder produced drawings and small oils of the beach and cliffs at Newquay. He wrote to his friend William Rothenstein, ‘there is a most lovely beach and one sees such charming sights of a kind of strange picturesque people who are always on the beach’. Amongst the last of Conder’s paintings, these works recall his happy years in Australia, where he painted the beaches at Coogee, Bronte and Sandringham.
