Project Background
In May 2022, with the support of funding bodies including the National Heritage Lottery Fund and ACE/V&A Purchase Grant Award, Nottingham City Museums was able to acquire the last known portrait of the writer D.H. Lawrence (1885-1939) by Joep Nicolas and to display it at Newstead Abbey in Nottinghamshire.

These resources were created as part of this HLF funded project.
