Parlem de Pintura...
William Henry Margetson (London, 1861 - Wallingford, 2 de gener de 1940) va ser un pintor anglès. Es va formar en el Dulwich College i posteriorment al Royal College of Art i a la Royal Academy of Arts. A partir del 1885 va començar a exhibir les seves obres a la Royal Academy i més tard a la Royal Society of British Artists, al Royal Institute of Oil Painters i a la Grosvenor Gallery. Com a pintor, es va especialitzar ràpidament en la realització a figures femenines caracteritzades en un estil modern per l'època. També va ser autor, no obstant, d'obra religiosa i al·legòrica. El seu estil va ser canviant al llarg del temps explorant, en els seus inicis, l'academicisme victorià per amb el temps evolucionar vers el post-impressionisme i el pre-rafaelisme. El 1897 va realitzar l'obra The Sea Hath its Pearls, considerada la seva millor producció. William Henry Margetson, qui també va treballar com a il·lustrador de llibres, va morir a Wallingford el gener de 1940.
Parlem de Música...
Charles Hubert [Hastings] Parry (Bournemouth, 27 de febrer de 1848 - Rustington, 7 d'octubre de 1918) va ser un compositor anglès. A partir del 1861 va rebre formació a Eton, ciutat on ben aviat va participar en els concerts de la societat musical com a violinista, pianista i organista. Més tard va viatjar a Exeter on va estudiar, fins el 1870, amb Sterndale-Bennett, Macfarren i Pierson. També allà va rebre formació de piano de Dannreuther en uns anys en què es va iniciar com a compositor. No obstant, no va ser fins el 1879, amb l'estrena del seu primer concert per a piano, que el seu nom es va començar a fer conegut arreu d'Anglaterra. El 1883 i gràcies als èxits assolits, va ser nomenat professor del Royal College of Music de Londres, en un any en què també va rebre reconeixements públics de les universitats d'Oxford i Cambridge així com els doctorats d'Oxford i Dublin. El 1894 va ser nomenat director del Royal College of Music, en un càrrec que ja va mantenir la resta de la seva vida i que va compartir amb un càrrec de professor a Oxford des del 1899 fins el 1908. El 1898 va ser nomenat cavaller per la monarquia britànica i el 1903 va ser elevat a estatus real. Com a compositor, va ser notablement prolífic en tots els gèneres de l'època i amb un estil considerat representatiu del sentiment victorià de l'època. No obstant i després de la seva mort, esdevinguda a Rustington l'octubre de 1918, el seu nom va caure ràpidament en l'oblit.
