Christopher R. W. Nevinson
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson, (August 13, 1889 – October 7, 1946), was an English painter. He was associated with the vorticists but is perhaps best seen as a futurist. He attended the Slade School of Art before being drafted in World War I, during which he was appointed an official war artist. A large collection of his work can be found in the Imperial War Museum in London.
Nevinson was the son of the journalist Henry Nevinson and the suffrage campaigner Margaret Nevinson.
