Lawrence Gowing Libri
21 aprile 1918 – 5 febbraio 1991
Inizialmente celebrato come pittore di ritratti e paesaggi, questo artista e scrittore inglese ampliò significativamente la sua influenza nell'educazione artistica, nella scrittura e nella curatela. Il suo approccio alla storia dell'arte fu in gran parte autodidatta, favorendo una prospettiva unica. Successivamente ricoprì la carica di Direttore della stimata Slade School of Fine Art, lasciando un segno notevole nel mondo dell'arte.
