Edward Wadsworth Art

British, 1889-1949

Edward Wadsworth was an English artist, most famous for his close association with Vorticism. He painted, often in tempera, coastal views, abstracts, portraits and still-life. Wadsworth was also an engraver on wood and copper. In the First World War, he was involved in transferring dazzle camouflage designs onto ships for the Royal Navy and after the war, he continued to paint nautical themes. His wood-cuts were done in very small editions.
