Harbour
Over het werk
John Northcote Nash, the younger brother of the artist Paul Nash, spent much of his life in Essex, and the county's landscapes recur throughout his paintings, drawings and engravings. An Official War Artist during the First World War, Nash developed a primitivising style which was refined in the 1920s by the French-influenced ideas of Roger Fry and the Bloomsbury Group. This wash drawing of an Essex harbour, uniting the beauty of the natural world and the harsh intrusion of industry, typifies the evocative landscape style he developed in the interwar years.
