Born in Charlton, Kent, Adrian Hill studied at St John’s Wood School of Art, 1912-14, then at the Royal College of Art, 1919-20. During WWI, Hill was an Official War Artist, producing dramatic and outstanding sketches and paintings from the front line, many of which can now be seen in the Imperial War Museum, London.
Hill exhibited widely, at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists, the New English Art Club, the Royal Hibernian Academy and the Royal Institute of Painters in Oil, in the provinces and overseas, notably at the Paris Salon. His work can also be found in many public collections, including the Victoria & Albert Museum. |
