About the artist
Born in Brighton, Sussex, Max was the sibling of fellow artists Eric and Cecil Gill. His education spanned the Royal Naval Academy, Chichester School of Art, and the Central School of Arts and Crafts. He kick-started his career as an architect, and his expertise eventually led to his fellowship at RIBA. His architectural prowess can be seen in landmarks like the Lincoln Cathedral and House of Commons, where his murals are particularly noted.
In addition to being a designer for the Imperial War Graves Commission, Max was also a lecturer on architecture. His talents extended to poster design for the Empire Marketing Board and London's Underground Railway. His influence continues to inspire modern cartographers and graphic artists.
