BRINGING ART TO WALES: THE DAVIES SISTERS Saturday, May 24, BBC Two Wales, 7.30pm

In the early 1900s, Gwendoline and Margaret Davies, two sisters from Llandinam, Newtown, started to create of the great British art collections of the 20th century.

Ignoring critical derision and following their own taste, they bought controversial Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings including the first Cézanne to be exhibited in Britain and one of the first Van Goghs to enter a British collection.

On their deaths, they bequeathed their art to the National Museum Wales as a gift to the nation.

In Bringing Art to Wales: The Davies Sisters, presenter Trevor Fishlock explores how the sisters succeeded in building their remarkable, pioneering collection.

He considers the paintings that in their time were the ‘shock of the new’. Why was such a painting so upsetting? And how was it that two shy and devout Calvinistic Methodist sisters were drawn to such controversial art?

Trevor returns to Gwendoline and Margaret’s family roots to track the source of the wealth that funded their buying and to explore the religious principles and commitment to philanthropy that governed their lives.
