Ronald Searle: 'Obsessed with drawing'

Cambridge-born Ronald Searle (1920-2011) is among Britain's most popular and celebrated graphic satirists, known for his fictional girls’ school St. Trinian’s and his collaborations on Geoffrey Willans’ Molesworth series. Searle had a long and productive career in a range of genres, working as a war artist, but also making drawings for book and magazine illustration, travel reportage, theatre, film, medals and political caricature. Searle’s visits to the Fitzwilliam during his formative years solidified his sense of place in the history of caricature – a complementary exhibition of the caricaturists he most admired will also be on display.
