Seascapes by Caspar David Friedrich (1774 – 1840). Friedrich's work brought him renown early in his career. Nevertheless, his work fell from favour during his later years, and he died in obscurity. It wasn't until the 20th Century that he was rediscovered.

He moved to Gloucestershire in 1939. Self-portraits (1939) & Daphne (1940). Spencer created many self-portraits & looked at himself with a detached, almost cynical, amusement. He would bring that attitude to his nudes (look them up! 😉)

"Mantoka" by Jack Cole (creator of Plastic Man) from Funny Pages (January 1940).
Despite the cliche mystical presentation of Native hero there's a notable sympathy for the plight of persecuted:
"[They] were robbed of land, possessions and home by white man's treachery!"
