In 2018, Kettle's Yard received a legacy from the Estate
of Alan Reynolds and his wife Vona, reflecting their close
relationship with Kettle's Yard and its former Director,
Michael Harrison. A solo exhibition of Reynolds' work
had taken place at the galleries in 2003, while Harrison
had published a monograph on Reynolds in 2011.
Included in the bequest was Study for 'Summer: Young
September's Cornfield' (1954), a small watercolour
almost contemporary with Chalk Path, Early Autumn.
