Painting
Peter De Francia was a British painter and printmaker whose work engaged with social realism and abstraction in the postwar period. Working primarily in oil and etching, he developed a practice that moved between figuration and geometric abstraction, often incorporating themes of urban experience and labor. De Francia was active in British artistic circles during a period of significant modernist experimentation and social consciousness in visual culture.
