George Warner Allen (1916–1988) was a British artist, considered to be of the Neo-Romantic school.
[3][4] Allen held a solo exhibition at the Walker's Galleries, London, in 1952, for which the catalogue's introductory essay was written by his fellow painter Brian Thomas.
[1] Pictures were purchased by T. S. Eliot, Sir John Betjeman, and The Earl Baldwin.
[3] He converted to Roman Catholicism at Abingdon in 1973, after being asked to paint a tribute to Cardinal Newman.
[1][4] His The Rubbish Dump (1955), showing Jesus over a backdrop of Black Country industrialisation, was commissioned by Canon David Wood, whose wife was Allen's cousin, as an altarpiece for the Black Country Industrial Mission at St. George's Vicarage in Wolverhampton.
