- Kort biografi
- Vanessa Bell, née Stephen, born in London, England, was the older sister of Virginia Woolf. In 1896, she began to study drawing at Sir Arthur Cope’s School of Art in Kensington, and from 1901 to 1904 she studied painting at the Royal Academy of Art. After the death of their father Sir Leslie Stephen in 1904, the sisters moved to the Bloomsbury district. Their brother Thoby Stephen introduced them to some of his Cambridge University friends, who began meeting at the sisters' house along with other artists, writers, and intellectuals -- this eventually became known as the Bloomsbury Group. It included art critic Clive Bell (who married Vanessa in 1907), John Maynard Keynes, E.M. Forster, Leonard Woolf, Lytton Strachey, David Garnett, Desmond MacCarthy, and Duncan Grant. Vanessa had three children: Julian Bell, Quentin Bell, and Angelica Garnett (Grant's biological daughter). For many years, she lived in an unconventional household with Grant, and occasionally David Garnett, at Charleston, a farmhouse in Sussex originally purchased to allow the two men to perform farm work in lieu of military service in World War I. Over time, it became the country meeting place for the Bloomsbury Group. She is considered one of the major British portrait and landscape artists of the 20th century, as well as an important contributor to interior design.
