John Nash Biography

(b London, 11 April 1893; d Colchester, 23 Sept 1977). Painter, wood-engraver and illustrator, brother of (1) Paul Nash. He had no formal art training but was urged by his brother to develop his natural talent as a draughtsman. His early work was in watercolour and included biblical scenes, comic drawings and landscapes. A joint exhibition with Paul at the Dorien Leigh Gallery, London, in 1913 was successful, and John was invited to become a founder-member of the LONDON GROUP in 1914 and to join the CUMBERLAND MARKET GROUP in 1915. He began painting in oils with the encouragement of Harold Gilman, whose meticulous craftsmanship influenced his finest landscapes such as The Cornfield (1918; London, Tate).
