Below are two more Google Alerts.

The first alert is "A Modernist Icon: What Is Virginia Known for" and is located at: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.thecollector.com/what-is-virginia-woolf-known-for/__;!!KGKeukY!yonwHmV9uqPfWcdGAcOBoMSYOhB1oqH2WpPCfe2ws8zMentRNMd75dCbvRRF_Xhr0LtPyfWCCPNESu0O_DLnu_gzMzeG$  (the same author wrote the problematic "Life and Art of Vanessa Bell and Post-Impressionism" in which it was Vanessa, not Virginia, who was molested by half-brothers: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.thecollector.com/life-and-art-of-vanessa-bell-post-impressionism-pioneer/__;!!KGKeukY!yonwHmV9uqPfWcdGAcOBoMSYOhB1oqH2WpPCfe2ws8zMentRNMd75dCbvRRF_Xhr0LtPyfWCCPNESu0O_DLnuxpKAQ1v$ ). The current post seems appropriate for teen readers and is fairly accurate, but it does have a hilariously embarrassing statement about Carrington and Strachey:

"Similar to fellow Bloomsbury member Lytton Strachey’s attitude toward his spouse Dora Carrington, Leonard supported Virginia’s relationships with other people and allowed her to be open to many connections."

It also includes an intriguing artwork titled Lily Briscoe’s Painting by Kate Proudman, 2016, painted by Kate Proudman and apparently posted with permission of Kate Proudman Fine Art. I don't think it's how Lily would have painted, but it's still visually engaging.

TheCollector
Virginia Woolf is known for her modernist novels, but she was also an aspiring art critic and prominent member of the Bloomsbury group.

The second alert is below as a link only.

Financial Times
The entertaining piece by Louis Wise (HTSI, June 3) about the sculptor Stephen Tomlin, featured his dour lead bust of Virginia Woolf.
You should be able to access the amusing letter sent to the Financial Times by Alastair Conan about Stephen Tomlin's sculpture. I won't paste it in here because of the threatening policies providing by FT.com (see below).
