Looking at Snow - Christopher Nevinson

Christopher Richard Wynne Nevinson was a British painter, etcher, and lithographer, known as one of the most famous war artists of World War I. He studied at the Slade School of Art under Henry Tonks and became involved with the Italian Futurist Movement and briefly with Wyndham Lewis’s Rebel Art Centre. After serving in the Royal Army Medical Corps in 1917, he was appointed an official war artist, shifting from modernist to more realistic styles to depict the horrors of war. His 1930s cityscapes were well received, though he remained a controversial figure until his death.
