Dealer Notes
Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson (1889-1946), “was a modern artist depicting a modern war. In the paintings reproduced here we can see Nevinson switching between the Futurist style which he practised before World War One, and a more naturalistic, journalistic approach that developed as the reality of war challenged Futurism’s ideals.”—British Library website.
