Painting
Robert Colquhoun was a British painter and printmaker whose expressionistic figural works emerged from the rubble of postwar Europe. Working primarily in oil and lithography, he developed a distinctive vocabulary of distorted, angular forms and muted earth tones that conveyed psychological unease and bodily fragmentation. His paintings and prints from the 1940s and 1950s established him as a significant voice in British neo-Romanticism, though his career was curtailed by his early death in 1962. This profile will be expanded as more verified source material becomes available.
