A man who did well out of the war
Article Abstract:
The Imperial War Museum in London, England, is staging a retrospective of the work of C.R.W. Nevinson, who was briefly regarded as the best English artist of the first world war. He experimented with a range of techniques early in his career, but the best of his very early works is a school-of-Seurat painting of a railway bridge at Charenton dated 1911. By 1914, he had turned to Futurism, and soon gained a reputation as the most vital painter of the terrors of modern warfare.
