For many people Winston Churchill is best known for making stirring wartime speeches and smoking fat cigars, but Britain's most famous prime minister also loved to paint.
That less known side of his character is the subject of a new exhibition at the Wallace Collection in London that seeks to explore his creativity.
The organisers of the show have described it as the most significant display of Churchill's paintings for more than 60 years. It includes more than 50 canvases, many of them rarely seen in public.
