An impasto gouache portrait painting by Malcolm Drummond Signed lower right.

Malcolm Drummond, born on 24 May 1880, was the son of an Anglican vicar, and grew up Berkshire. He graduated in 1902 with a degree in history from Christ Church, Oxford. After a year estate manager of Duncombe Park in Yorkshire. In 1903 he made the brave decision to abandon his job after only a year and commit his life to art. He studied at the Slade School, studying under Walter Richard Sickert.

A member of the Camden Town Group,Drummond exhibited at all three their exhibitions in 1911–12. He also submitted work to the Salon des Indépendants, Paris, in 1913 and subsequently joined the London Group as a founder-member, exhibiting with them regularly in 1913–32.

In 1920s Drummond he continued to favour subjects that revealed the day-to-day lives of groups of ordinary people observed in places such as Chelsea Public Library, the law courts at the Old Bailey and the Hammersmith Palais dance hall.

Since his death in 1945 a number of exhibitions have been held which have helped to re-evaluate Drummond’s work, most notably by the Arts Council in 1963–4 and the Maltzahn Gallery, London, in 1974. A number of public collections hold examples of Drummond’s work, including Southampton City Art Gallery and the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. In addition to two paintings, Tate Archive contains a large number of drawings, sketchbooks and etchings.
