This lecture will focus on the career of one of Britain’s best-loved artists, including his education at the Slade, his turbulent personal life, his experiences of both World Wars, and the idiosyncratic paintings he made over fifty eventful years. Dr Fox will draw heavily on the Fitzwilliam’s superb collection, which contains some of Spencer’s finest work.
