Julian Trevelyan set up his studio at Durham Wharf in Hammersmith in 1935 and continued to draw inspiration for his work from the surrounding landscape for the rest of his career. Between 1955-1963, he was an engraving tutor at the Royal College of Art where he was known as an exciting and energetic teacher, inspiring a new generation of artists including David Hockney and R.B. Kitaj.
