THE art department of Queen Elizabeth Sixth Form College has taken 40 students on an inspiring visit to London and Paris.
The students got the chance to explore the sights, museums and galleries in both cities as they carried out important research for their A Level Art and Art Foundation coursework.
Upon arriving in London, the group was able to take in examples of fashion, prints and interior pieces, whilst in Paris, the group explored the Louvre, Musée d’Orsay, Centre Pompidou and many famous Parisian sights across the famous city.
Owen Davies, who studies Art Foundation, said: "I was really excited to see original print designs by Eduardo Paolozzi as he is the focus of my stage three research.
A Level Fine Art and Textiles student, Ellie Bedford, added: ‘I loved being able to obtain a close look at the garments created by Christian Dior and see how he created detailed floral surfaces."
A Level Fine Art and Graphics student, Yasmin Butler, said: ‘Being in both cities has helped me enormously with my work and I was able to find something in every museum to add to my personal project."
