| Artist, born in Munich, SE Germany. After three years on the English stage, he turned to art, studying in London and Paris, where he met Degas, and used his techniques to illustrate music-hall interiors and London life. The Camden Town Group (later the London Group) was formed under his leadership (c.1910), and he became a major influence on later English painters. |
