Cyril Mann was a British painter who added a new dimension to figurative art by exploring the dynamic effects of sunlight in a different way from his predecessors such as J M W Turner and the Impressionists.

Many of Mann’s early works were inspired by bomb-scarred buildings in the City of London after the war.

He also completed a number of sculptures, including a large commission to carve a family crest for a manor house.
