“Linearity, an English Trait?”

2009

This article looks at how the « English line” became one of the defining features of Englishness from the 1920s to the 1950s. It is based on texts by Michael Ayrton, Robin Ironside, John Piper and Nikolaus Pevsner that were published during or just after the Second World War, and that contributed to a contemporary critical reassessment of English art.
