Christ throwing the merchants out of the temple, c1950. Creator: Shirley Markham
Christ throwing the merchants out of the temple, c1950. Scene from the New Testament - Jesus expelling the merchants and the money changers from the Temple. Shirley Markham (1931-1999) studied Graphic Design and Illustration at Central School of Art in London from 1950-1952. The writer, artist, poet, and illustrator Mervyn Peake (1911-1968) was one of her tutors, and her style of drawing was also influenced by other British illustrators such as Edward Ardizzone, Quentin Blake and Edward Bawden. Markham spent time in the Dolomite Mountains in Italy, and also visited Rome, sketching classical buildings. After graduating from Central, she worked as a graphic designer, producing book illustrations, cartoons for comics, menus and programmes. She gave up her promising career however when she got married in 1957. Middle-class women at that time were expected to devote their energies to bringing up children and running the home, and despite her obvious talent, she lacked the confidence to return to illustration. Her portfolio remained in the family attic for many years, but now her work is published here for the first time

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Christ throwing the merchants out of the temple" captures a powerful scene from the New Testament. Created by Shirley Markham in approximately 1950, this artwork showcases Jesus expelling the merchants and money changers from the Temple. Shirley Markham was a talented artist who studied Graphic Design and Illustration at Central School of Art in London during 1950-1952. Under the guidance of renowned writer, artist, poet, and illustrator Mervyn Peake, she developed her unique style influenced by British illustrators such as Edward Ardizzone, Quentin Blake, and Edward Bawden. Markham's artistic journey took her to Italy where she spent time in the Dolomite Mountains and visited Rome to sketch classical buildings. After graduating from Central School of Art, she embarked on a successful career as a graphic designer producing book illustrations, comics cartoons menus, and programs. However promising her career may have been, societal expectations prevailed when Markham married in 1957. Middle-class women were expected to focus their energies on raising children and managing households during that era. Despite her undeniable talent as an illustrator, Markham lacked confidence to return to her craft. For many years after giving up illustration professionally for marriage and family life, her portfolio remained hidden away in the family attic until now. This publication marks its first unveiling to showcase Shirley Markham's remarkable body of work for all art enthusiasts to appreciate.
