This photograph of former President of the Royal Academy Sir Charles Wheeler sliding down the banisters, was taken at an official reception to mark the opening of a display of Russian art. The occasion remained fresh in the memory of his companion, the Russian art historian Vladislav Zimenko, who later remarked: ‘You are so informal, you English.’
