John Hassall - Part 11

 

In 1900, Hassall opened his own New Art School and School of Poster Design in Kensington, with the help of his former teacher Van Havermaet; he numbered Bert Thomas, H M Bateman and Harry Rountree among his students. In 1908, the school amalgamated with Frank Brangwyn’s London School, but was closed at the outbreak of the First World War. In the post war period, he ran the very successful John Hassall Correspondence School.


For more information about John Hassall see part 1, and for earlier works, see parts 1 - 10 also.


This is part 11 of of a 12-part series on the works of John Hassall
