Did you know? Christopher Nevinson served as an official war artist during World War I. His experiences on the Western Front profoundly impacted his artistic style, leading him to create powerful and often disturbing depictions of the horrors of modern warfare. These works, which often employed Futurist and Vorticist principles to convey the chaos and mechanization of war, brought him significant recognition and established him as a leading figure in British modern art. Although "The Strand by Night" depicts a much different subject, his experience of capturing the energy and movement of the war front likely influenced his later depictions of urban life.
