1865 - 1925

Painter, born in Hove, Sussex. He studied at Westminster School of Art and Acad mie Julian, Paris and in 1894 met Gauguin in Pont-Aven, Brittany By 1897 he had married the Polish painter S. de Karlowska and visited Poland with her several times. In 1905 he held his first one-person show at the Baillie Gallery.

Bevan was an early member of the short-lived Fitzroy Street Group, a forerunner of the Camden Town Group of which he was a founder member in 1911. He was also a founder member of the London Group, 1913 and the Cumberland Market Group in 1915 and also exhibited with Vanessa Bell’s Friday Club and contributed work to the obscure Arts League of Service.
