'Attack', an unfinished watercolour, is believed to date from Winsten's time at the Slade School of Art and probably depicts a biblical scene (then common subjects for Slade competition entries), possibly the Massacre of the Innocents. Winsten's experimental approach shows the influence of Post-Impressionism, and her later Slade painting shared certain formal elements with David Bomberg's work at this time.
