Lot description

Bernard Meninsky, Ukrainian/British 1891-1950 - Mother with Infant; gouache and pencil on paper, 37.5 x 24.5 cm Note: with unidentified exhibition label attached to the reverse, no.23. Bernard Meninsky moved to Britain as a child from Ukraine, living in Liverpool where he first studied art. Meninsky was eventually awarded a scholarship to study at the Slade between 1912-13, following his fellow-Jewish émigré artists Mark Gertler and David Bomberg. His war-time mural ‘The Arrival, 1918’ is now in the Imperial War Museum collection and during the 1920s, he exhibited at the Groupil Gallery and was a celebrated tutor at Westminster School of Art, also becoming associated with the Bloomsbury group during this period. He exhibited his work in the 1914 London Group exhibition at the Goupil Gallery and at the New English Art Club.
