As briefly mentioned a few weeks ago, we were delighted to recently discover the work of the late Robin Ball (1910 – 79), a wonderful artist of 1930s to 70s and one who produced some memorable works both during and immediately prior to the second world war. With works rightly held by the Imperial War Museum, Robin was undeniably a very talented fellow, showing an aptitude for art at an early age and going on to study at the Royal College of art, there awarded a travelling scholarship through Europe only curtailed by the outbreak of war.
