Description
A vibrant countryside scene by Christopher Wood, 'Landscape with Figures' features expressive brushwork and a lively composition. This fine art print captures the energy of Wood's modernist style.
Christopher 'Kit' Wood (1901-1930) was a British painter known for his modernist landscapes and figure compositions. He incorporated influences from various sources, including Cornish naive painting, Synthetic Cubism, and the work of Picasso and Jean Cocteau. His career, though brief, saw him become a significant figure in the British art scene of the 1920s. He died tragically at the age of 29. 'Landscape with Figures' presents a view of the countryside populated with figures and animals. The composition is divided into distinct zones: a foreground with playing children and chickens, a middle ground with grazing horses, and a background of rolling hills. A white fence and covered walkway separate the foreground from the middle ground, adding a sense of depth. The artist's brushwork is loose and expressive, with visible strokes that contribute to the painting's overall sense of immediacy. The colour palette is dominated by greens and blues, with touches of red and white that draw the eye.

Artist Biography
Christopher Wood
Christopher Wood died at 29, throwing himself in front of a train at Salisbury station on 21 August 1930. The tragedy cut short one of the most distinctive careers in British modernism: a painter who had charmed Picasso and Diaghilev in Paris, spent summers chasing paintable light along the Breton coast, and co-discovered the self-taught mariner Alfred Wallis in a St Ives backstreet.
Born in Knowsley, Liverpool in 1901, Wood abandoned medicine to study at the Académie Julian in Paris from 1921. The social world he entered was remarkable: he moved through Cocteau's circle and was taken up by Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, even designing sets for a production that was never staged. By the mid-1920s he had joined both the London Group and the Seven and Five Society, painting alongside Ben and Winifred Nicholson.
His breakthrough came partly through patronage. Lucy Wertheim began buying his work after his 1929 solo exhibition at Tooth's Gallery on Bond Street and was planning his first major retrospective for October 1930 when he died. His final summers in Brittany produced some of his finest paintings: harbour scenes and chapels rendered with a directness that owed something to Wallis, something to Post-Impressionism, and a great deal to his own particular handling of colour.
Wood never lived to see how thoroughly his reputation would hold. Posthumous exhibitions followed in 1931 and 1932, and works appeared in the 1938 Venice Biennale. His gravestone at Salisbury was carved by Eric Gill. Today his Breton coastal scenes command six-figure sums at auction, reflecting the sustained appeal of that short, fractured career.
