Gerald Anthony Coles Art

English, 1929-2004

Gerald Anthony Coles was an English painter, printmaker and stained glass designer, born in Luton, Bedfordshire, in 1929. A talented portraitist, he expertly captures mood and emotion, with an understated yet elegant understanding of the human form. Favoring the dark and the sensual, he uses dark and largely monochromatic tones and experiments with a variety of media and substrate, including woodcut, oil/acrylics and monotypes. His works are represented in the British Museum collection.
