This rediscovered poetic #stilllife gives an intimate insight into Ben #Nicholson’s life. Inspired by regular visits to #France throughout the year in which this was painted, Nicholson absorbed elements of Synthetic #cubism – when artists started adding #textures and #patterns to their paintings, experimenting with #collage using #newspaper print and patterned paper. Nicholson was a devoted follower of #tennis, often found bouncing a ball along the streets of St. Ives, and in this work a copy of Le Journal is depicted reporting on Henri Cochot’s loss to his greatest rival during the Davis Cup. #Cochot was one of the leading French players of the period, having won #Wimbledon twice and ranked world number one from 1928 to 1931. However, 1932 was an inauspicious year for the athlete and this works signals the beginning of the end for his stellar career. Our Post-War & Modern British art #exhibition opens to the public in our #London galleries on 8 June. #BenNicholson #ModernBritishArt
