John Piper was an established artist at the forefront of the Neo-Romantic movement at the time of the Second World War. He had established his reputation in the 1930s, concentrating on architecture and landscapes and also experimenting with abstraction. By the 1940s Piper had moved away from full abstraction and shared some similarities in style to artists such as Graham Sutherland, who along with the likes of Henry Moore and younger artists such as John Minton, have often been grouped together as Neo-Romantics.
