Terence Cuneo (1907-1996) was a British painter who specialized in painting scenes of
industrial and military life. He was known for his ability to capture the power and
movement of steam locomotives, as well as the drama and action of military campaigns.
Cuneo was born in London and studied at the Chelsea School of Art and the Slade
School of Fine Art. He began his career as a commercial artist, working for companies
such as Shell Oil and the London Transport Executive. In the 1940s, he began to focus
on painting scenes of military and industrial life, often working on commission for
government agencies and corporations. Cuneo's paintings are characterized by their
attention to detail and realism. He often used bold colors and dramatic compositions to
convey a sense of power and movement. Some of his most famous works include "The
Battle of Waterloo," "The Battle of Britain," and "The Last Train to Weymouth." In
addition to his painting career, Cuneo was also a member of the Royal Society of British
Artists and was appointed a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1996 for
his services to the arts. Today, his paintings are held in the collections of major
museums and galleries around the world, including the National Railway Museum in
York, England, and the Imperial War Museum in London
