Just outside Richmond Park is the Dorich House Museum, former studio home of 20th century sculptress Dora Gordine. Built in 1936 to Gordine's design, it houses her work and a collection of Russian art she acquired. Originally from Latvia, Dora came to London in the late 1920s and by the late 1930s was hailed as "possibly the finest woman sculptor in the world".
