λ FRANK ARCHER (BRITISH 1912-1995)UNTITLEDOil on canvasIndistinctly signed and dated 44() (lower left)61 x 51cm (24 x 20 in.)With a still life painting of yellow flowers in a vase, verso.Born in 1912 in Walthamstow, Archer showed artistic talent from a young age. He attended Eastbourne School of Art before a free studentship allowed him to to the Royal College of Art in 1934 where, in 1938, he won the prestigious Prix de Rome. The outbreak of World War II forced Archer to return to the UK just a year later, but his time in Italy had a lasting impact on the artist. His work from this period is stark and angular with a subdued palette and subject matter which reflected the turmoil beginning to unfold around him. His drawings and paintings comprised elements of both scenes that he had witnessed combined with imaginary elements inspired by his knowledge of what was happening across Europe. The date on this painting is indistinct, but appears to be (19)44. By 1940, Archer had been called up and enlisted in the Pioneer Corps. Wartime paintings by Archer appear to be very rare and, although the English text would seem to place this work in England, it is possible, perhaps even likely, that it is an imaginary scene rather than strictly representative.

He won the Prix de Rome in 1938 and occupied various teaching posts until his retirement in 1972.

After the war, Archer taught at Eastbourne School of Art, and later at Kingston College of Art, eventually becoming its head. Though he continued to use some kinds of printmaking, his essential development was as a painter with a breadth of vision.
