Edward Burra
1905–1976
(b London, 29 Mar. 1905; d Hastings, Sussex, 22 Oct. 1976). British painter, draughtsman, and stage designer, an eccentric and individual figure. He was ravaged by ill health continuously from childhood and lived almost all his life in the genteel Sussex seaside town of Rye (he called it an ‘overblown gifte shoppe’), but he travelled indomitably and had a tremendous zest for life.
