Biography

Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson was born in 1889 to war journalist Henry Nevinson and suffragette Margaret Jones. As a young man, he studied at the Slade School of Art, producing paintings which were heavily inspired by the Futurist and Cubist movements of the time. During WWI, Nevinson was one of several 'war artists' appointed by the British government to document scenes of trench warfare. His initial paintings of the war were critically acclaimed - especially 1915's La Mitrailleuse. However, as the war dragged on, Nevinson broke from Futurism and painted in an increasingly realistic style, to mixed critical reception. After WWI, he produced a mixture of Futurist paintings (such as 1933's The Twentieth Century) and more realist works. He died in 1946, aged 57.
