| | Born in Brighton, England, in 1882, Gill — the son of a nonconformist minister — was apprenticed to a London architect in 1899. | | | This is an early example that shows the influence of Edward Johnston, a designer with whom Gill studied at the London Central School of Arts and Crafts in 1901. | | | "Gill was a prolific writer," Davis said, "and having such an extensive collection of his works on social reform, industrialization, religion and the theory of art is important. |

| | Nude by Eric Gill 1882-1940 |
| | What Gill sought passionately in a drawing such as this were 'the things that I love; the round and the sharp, the firm and the flowing and things clear and clean'. | | | This was based, significantly, on the fact that he did not believe life drawing to be a necessity for his work as a sculptor but rather that such studies should be undertaken largely as an end in themselves. | | | Given the subsequent fame, even the notoriety, of his life drawing, it is astonishing to learn that Gill only seems to have taken it up in 1926 when he was already forty-four years old. |

| | In MacCarthy's candid portrait, Gill, who preserved the outward image of a devout father-figure, was neither saint nor humbug, but a highly sexed creative artist trapped by his Victorian concept of masculinity. | | | Yet there was another side to the man, downplayed by previous biographers: a fervent convert to Catholicism and leader of three Catholic arts-and-crafts communes, Gill had a hyperactive libido which extended to incest with his sisters and daughters, as well as numerous extramarital affairs, according to British writer MacCarthy. | | | Yet despite a happy marriage and adherence to certain Victorian ideals, Gill flaunted traditional morality by engaging in countless affairs as well as incestuous relationships with both his sisters and daughters.... |

| | Judith Collins in her book Eric Gill The Sculpture (ref 4) mentions that Gill was possibly the first sculptor since the Middle Ages to resurrect the art of carving in situ - another pointer to Gill being the sculptor, albeit at a very early age in his career? | | | Unfortunately nothing was found in the Gill diaries that related to the sculptures but this was not conclusive since there were problems scanning the diaries: — the entries other than the early years did not detail the daily events in his life and often were either difficult or impossible to read. | | | For two years Eric attended the Chichester Technical and Art School and, under the influence of Art Master George Herbert Catt, developed his passion for lettering. |
