I decided to use the time between the walks to look for a shopping mall which dates back to Jane Austen&#8217;s time, but I got diverted as I saw a sign for a free exhibition on Mary Beale in Pall Mall.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mary Beale is that rare beast; a professional female artist of the 17th Century (1633-1699). So, I double-checked the &#8216;free entry&#8217; notice because this was a posh West End private art gallery and the name Philip Mould was familiar.&nbsp; I went in and realised that this was something special.  I returned to the entrance to ask the very friendly staff whether I could take photographs.&nbsp; &#8216;Yes, of course, they said.&#8217; much to my surprise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/pxl_20240710_104316848786620042719760423-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5170\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/pxl_20240710_104316848786620042719760423-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/pxl_20240710_104316848786620042719760423-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/pxl_20240710_104316848786620042719760423-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/pxl_20240710_104316848786620042719760423-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/pxl_20240710_104316848786620042719760423.jpg 1125w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mary Beale Exhibition sign.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Downstairs, the art of Mary Beale was beautifully displayed, and the exhibition had a very interesting story to tell, which was well-told, using excellent labels and a film narrated by Philip Mould.&nbsp; He was, as I thought, the co-presenter of &#8216;Fake or Fortune&#8217; (with Fiona Bruce, newsreader  and anchor of the BBC&#8217;s Antiques Roadshow).   This is a BBC art programme which is in its 12th Series. The conceit of the show is that they investigate dubious paintings to find out whether they are genuine or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The film revealed that Philip Mould opened his Art Gallery here over a decade ago, but research has recently discovered that this is the very address where Mary Beale had her studio.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/mary-beale-july-24_10-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5179\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/mary-beale-july-24_10-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/mary-beale-july-24_10-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/mary-beale-july-24_10-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/mary-beale-july-24_10-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/chr.org.uk\/anddidthosefeet\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/mary-beale-july-24_10-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Scene shot of Philip Mould in the Mary Beale Exhibition in his short film shot in his Art Gallery.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Her career is not only remarkable in itself, but it was recorded in great detail by her husband.
