§ Sir Robert Vere "Robin" Darwin, KCB, CBE, RA, RSA, PRWA, NEAC (British, 1910-1974) Three-Legged Race signed 'Darwin' (lower left) oil on board h:68 w:45.50 cm Other Notes: Sir Robert Darwin studied at the University of Cambridge and later at the Slade School of Fine Art. Darwin gained renown for his well-known report 'The Training of an Industrial Designer' and proposed changes to the curriculum at the Royal College of Art, which led to his appointment as principal of the school in 1948. He held this post until 1971 and oversaw a particularly famous period of the school's history, later termed 'the Darwin era'. He painted a range of subjects throughout his career, although the populated landscape was one of his most frequent subjects. 'Three-legged Race' is a representative example of Darwin's wider oeuvre, which was characterised by an impressionistic painting technique and tonal harmonies.
