"Garden parties, church theatricals, dozens of events the Roma paints make colourful scenes, and her paintings slowly impress on one that realisation that social gatherings of a formal sort were a lot more frequent early in the century. So the current fashion for nostalgia is probably a contributing factor in the popularity of Roma's paintings."
