Cyril Mann (1911 - 1980) 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.
