In "The Studio" (Vol. 60; 1913), A L Baldry provided an interesting overview of Russell Flint's career to that time in 'A Romanticist Painter: W Russell Flint'. Later, in his posthumously published autobiography, "In Pursuit: An Autobiography", Russell Flint described the subtle career transition he experienced after World War I thus: On getting out of uniform in February 1919 I found that so many people wanted my watercolours that I ceased to be an illustrator and became a painter. From 1919 to the present day I have lived by my brush, still in pursuit of my own undefinable ideal. Despite that transition, however, Russell Flint participated in a further two sumptuous illustrated books following World War I: Lang's translation of Bucolic poetry "Theocritus, Bion and Moschus" (1922); and "The Odyssey of Homer" (1924). Some decades after his first consolidated suites of illustrations were published, his skills were recognised by the Royal Academy and throughout the 1920s and 1930s Russell Flint was elected to a variety of positions, including: Associate of the Royal Academy (1924); Member of the Royal Academy (1933); and President of the Royal Academy of Painters in Watercolour (1936). In 1962, his artistic record was recognised by the Crown when he received a knighthood. To the left, we show ''Selene'' by William Russell Flint |
