		At Spring Cottage, however, an earlier and exquisitely fine gothic tea house is concealed within Devey's enveloping structure where the Duchess herself is reputed to have entertained Queen Victoria to tea.

	ART / 4 / 2DAY
		In his latter years, Cotman was troubled by fits of depression and this, combined with relative isolation in Norfolk (he was one of the founders of the "Norwich School") led him away from his genius to pursue the influence of Turner and what Ruskin came to call "The Turnerian sublime." Cotman died in London.
		However, the deciding influence on Spencer was a 1921 trip to Europe, where he was exposed to the work of Paul Cézanne, and the Cubism of Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, and Juan Gris, which provided the basic vocabulary on which Spencer's uninhabited industrial landscapes are based.
		Spencer's work is often associated with a group of US classicist painters called the Precisionists, a loosely knit group including Charles Sheeler, Charles Demuth, Louis Lozowick, George Ault, Elsie Driggs and Ralston Crawford [25 Sep 1906 – 27 Apr 1978].
