When he wrote this remarkable letter to a friend in 1912, D. H. Lawrence was newly and turbulently in love with Frieda Weekley, a German author who had left her husband and children to be with him. Clearly, the pressure was unbearable for all involved. Two years later, Lawrence married Frieda. They remained together until his death.
Tom Ellis joined us to read this letter at Letters Live at The Town Hall, New York in May 2026.
What makes two volcano-born pigments so dangerous? Hint: they weren’t scorching hot when artists used them. Orpiment and realgar both contain arsenic, a foe we’ve previously faced on ‘Stories in Colour’.
From volcanoes to ancient alchemical practices, art historian Evie Hatch joins Beks to uncover the origins and histories of these orange and yellow pigments. Together, they discuss how orpiment and realgar have been used, where their names come from and the risks artists faced painting with them.
