Cope's 'The Council of the Royal Academy Selecting Pictures for the Exhibition', 1875. It deftly illustrates how the process of selecting works for the RA's Summer Exhibition remains remarkably unchanged. Howard wrote of this perennially challenging task that he and fellow selectors, including Roger de Grey PRA and Jean Cooke RA, were 'assailed by cats, dogs and owls' but 'laboured hard and long to glean the best from more than 15,000 workspainfully conscious of the love and effort that have gone into all of them'.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Postcard Finder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56171277386054,"sku":"127449","price":3.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/3216\/9030\/files\/ken-howard-the-royal-academy-of-arts-select-committee-painting-postcard-127449-p.jpg?v=1773404530","url":"https:\/\/postcardfinder.co.uk\/products\/ken-howard-the-royal-academy-of-arts-select-committee-painting-postcard","provider":"Postcard Finder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
