    Title/Subject: Sicily – Cultural Crossroads
    Date: Thursday 5th November 2026
    Venue: The Public Hall, Budleigh Salterton, EX9 6RS
    Speaker: Richard Wincop

  • Sicily has long been the crossroads between Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. This Discovery Day explores the cultural influences brought by these regions, followed by the Normans, who wove together these cultures during a remarkably enlightened rule. Richard Wincop, based in Chichester, is a professional artist whose combination of knowledge and practical experience gives him a unique perspective on Art History. His interest in Sicily was sparked by a large-scale commission in Calabria to paint the story of the Norman conquest of Southern Italy.
