Christopher Nevinson

Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson (1889–1946) was a British painter, etcher, and lithographer best known as a leading war artist of World War I. Trained at the Slade School under Henry Tonks, he was influenced by Futurism and briefly associated with Wyndham Lewis’s Rebel Art Centre. After serving with the Royal Army Medical Corps, he became an official war artist. His later cityscapes gained acclaim, though he remained a controversial figure.
