[Study for Missouri State Capitol Murals]

Sir Frank William Brangwyn British, born Belgium

Not on view

Brangwyn was associated with William Morris and the Arts and Crafts movement. Over his long career, he mastered a variety of mediums, including etching, wood engraving, book and poster illustration, murals, architecture, interior design, and ceramics. A close friend of the Pictorialist photographer Alvin Langdon Coburn, Brangwyn took up the camera himself to record family and friends, document his work, and produce figure studies for his many public mural commissions. He made this photograph as a study for a complex set of murals inside the dome of the Missouri State Capitol in Jefferson City that he executed between 1915 and 1925.
