Walter Westbrook (artist) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Walter Westbrook (artist) Walter Edward Westbrook (3 August 1921 – 15 January 2015) was a South African artist who lived latterly in England. He was well known particularly for his watercolour landscapes inspired by the arid plains of the Northern Cape and Namibia, and later by the countryside of Kent and the English Channel. Westbrook was born in Pretoria in 1921 and lived in Kimberley for several decades before emigrating to England in the late 1990s.〔(Walter Edward Westbrook: Biography and Profile - accessed on 28 May 2013 )〕〔Lucy Alexander & Evelyn Cohen ''150 South African Paintings Past and Present'', Struikhof Publishers ISBN 0 947458 25 5〕〔Esme Berman, ''Art & Artists of South Africa'', AA Balkema Publishers ISBN 0 86961 144 5〕 He died in Kent in 2015, aged 93.〔(Obituary - Walter Westbrook )〕 ==Early years and wartime art== Westbrook began to paint at a young age and studied art under Walter Battiss in Pretoria. Not recognised officially as war artist, Westbrook nevertheless practised as a painter throughout his war years in North Africa, and in Italy where he was taken under the wing of Italian artist, Francisco Caprioli. Wartime works of his are exhibited at the South African National Museum of Military History. In the post-war period, Westbrook held a one man show in Pretoria in 1947.
