The obituary I wrote of Tom Phillips for the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography has just appeared online (https://www-oxforddnb-com.lonlib.idm.oclc.org/display/10.1093/odnb/9780198614128.001.0001/odnb-9780198614128-e-90000383127?rskey=OUb2iP&result=4).

Unfortunately, you can only access it through a library – for me, it is one of the many wonderful things about being a member of the London Library.

As sometimes happens, since writing the obit., I had forgotten about the incredible range of Tom’s career – artist, musician, writer, reviewer, trustee of the British Museum.

I’m only sad that there isn’t a picture, so am posting a good one taken for an article in the Guardian:-

I am also posting a link to the lovely article about his house written by Richard Ovenden for The World of Interiors (https://www.worldofinteriors.com/story/tom-phillips-peckham-home).
