Pupils in Year 4 have explored the ways that figures have been presented against backgrounds in paintings, such as Gainsborough’s Mr. and Mrs. Andrews and Hockney’s  Mr. and Mrs. Clarke and Percy.

They were then asked to create a background of their choice and design two figures, to place against this background.
