English Heritage plaque in St John’s Wood honours artist and first husband John Skeaping
It was a place where a young Barbara Hepworth lived for less than a year but the pretty basement flat in north London, with its billiards room converted into a studio, effectively launched her artistic career.
Hepworth is one of the 20th century’s greatest artists with a story often told through her birthplace in Wakefield and her later career in St Ives.
