The Wapping Group’s 75th Anniversary Book “A Changing View”, makes an ideal present. Ninety six pages packed with images from Present and Past members, plus a history of one of the oldest-established groups of artists working plein air in this country.

Our pre- Christmas offer of £22.50 plus postage has been very well received, but it did coincide with deep snow, ice and postal difficulties. Because of this we think it is right to extend the special price offer.

You can order your copy at £22.50 plus postage through the link below

For UK sales price:  £22.50 single copy plus £5.25 postage and packing. For two copies £45 plus £6.25 postage and packing, a saving of £4.50 on p&p

The long-awaited slipcase edition of the Wapping Group’s book, “A Changing View” is now available.

This is a book for the collector. Until now available only to members of the Group, there are just 28 copies remaining. Each copy is signed by all the members of the Group, and is numbered in a limited edition of 75, commemorating the Group’s 75th anniversary. It is presented in a handsome slipcase.  The edition is limited to these 75 copies – there will never be more. At £75, this is a remarkable opportunity to own a highly collectable book.

In tribute to Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the Wapping Group of Artists offers this image, one of its members’ paintings of Windsor Castle, a favourite location for the Group.
