John Egerton Christmas PiperCH (13 December 1903 – 28 June 1992) was an English painter, printmaker and designer of stained-glass windows and theatre sets. His work often focused on the British landscape, especially churches and monuments, and included tapestry designs, book jackets, screen-prints, photography, fabrics and ceramics. He was educated at Epsom College and trained at the Richmond School of Art, followed by the Royal College of Art in London. He turned from abstraction early in his career, concentrating on a more naturalistic but distinctive approach. He was an official war artist in World War II. Piper collaborated with many others, including the poets John Betjeman and Geoffrey Grigson on the Shell Guides, and with the potter Geoffrey Eastop and the artist Ben Nicholson. In his later years he produced many limited-edition prints.
Early life
John Piper was born in Epsom, Surrey, the youngest of three sons to the solicitor Charles Alfred Piper and his wife Mary Ellen Matthews. During Piper's childhood, Epsom was still largely countryside. He went exploring on his bike, and drew and painted pictures of old churches and monuments on the way. He started making guide books complete with pictures and information at a young age. Piper's brothers both served in the First World War and one of them was killed at Ypres in 1915.
John Piper (20 April 1773 – 8 June 1851) was a military officer, public servant and landowner in the colony of New South Wales.
Piper was born in Maybole, AyrshireScotland, son of Hugh Piper, a doctor; his family came from Cornwall. He was commissioned as an ensign in the New South Wales Corps in 1791, and sailed on the convict ship Pitt, arriving in Sydney in February 1792. In 1793 he was sent, at his own request, to the convict settlement of Norfolk Island, perhaps because of a scandalous love affair. There was certainly an illegitimate daughter born around this time.
Piper was promoted lieutenant and returned to Sydney in 1795; from 1797 to 1799 he was on leave. In 1800 Piper was promoted to captain. Piper supported John Macarthur in the struggle between the New South Wales Corps and Governor King, and acted as his second in a duel with Colonel Paterson, his commanding officer. Piper was arrested and court-martialled in 1802, but apologised and was acquitted, to King's disgust.
John Stephen Piper (born January 11, 1946) is founder and teacher of desiringgod.org and chancellor of Bethlehem College & Seminary in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He is a Calvinist Baptist preacher and author who served as Pastor for Preaching and Vision of Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota for 33 years. His books include ECPA Christian Book Award winners Spectacular Sins,What Jesus Demands from the World,Pierced by the Word, and God's Passion for His Glory, and bestsellers Don't Waste Your Life and The Passion of Jesus Christ. The evangelical organization Desiring God is named for his book Desiring God: Meditations of a Christian Hedonist (1986).
Biography
Piper was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to Bill and Ruth Piper. His father was a traveling evangelist and church planter. When he and his older sister were still young, the Pipers moved to Greenville, South Carolina, where he spent the remainder of his youth and graduated from Wade Hampton High School.
John Piper on the South Bank Show, 1983.
It covers his painting history and also features him painting at Covehithe in Suffolk. There are views of his studio also. I have tried to clean up the film and correct the colours but the picture quality is what it is.

John Piper: A collection of 183 works (HD)
Description: "The British painter/printmaker John Piper was born in Epsom, Surrey, England in 1903. He began his artistic training between 1921 and 1928 where he studied first at Richmond School of Art, England and then at the Royal College of Art in London. His early works were basically straightforward, picturesque landscapes of the South Coast. His training instilled in him an interest and concern for drawing that would characterize his works throughout his life.
Piper was a versatile artist who worked in a variety of mediums including book illustrations, theater designs, pottery design, stained glass and textiles. His greatest love was for natural phenomena and architecture and his works are characterized by a sense of atmosphere and light.
Beginning in 1928, Piper emerged as a discerning art critic due to his love of looking at art and his insight in discussing it. In the 1930s he became involved with an abstract movement under the leadership of the prominent artists Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson. Then in 1933 he made a visit to Paris where he encountered another group of abstract artists including Braque, Leger, Brancusi, and Helion. Piper's own work created between 1935 and 1937 moved into an abstract style characterized by grays, blues, blacks, and accents of red. Piper's real interest though lay in architecture and landscape. He gradually moved away from abstract and returned to landscapes, inspired by frequent trips throughout Eland and Wales. Between 1939 and 1945 he continued working in a dark palette in his work as an official war artist. He was commissioned to record damaged historical building. Following the war, excursions to Venice stimulated Piper into using warmer hues in his creation of landscape devoid of human presence.
John Piper died on June 28, 1992 at Fawley Bottom, Oxfordshire, England."

John Piper: A collection of 183 works (HD)
Description: "The British painter/printmaker John Piper was born in Epsom, Surrey, England in 1903. He began his artistic training between 1921 and 1928 where he studied first at Richmond School of Art, England and then at the Royal College of Art in London. His early works were basically straightforward, picturesque landscapes of the South Coast. His training instilled in him an interest and concern for drawing that would characterize his works throughout his life.
Piper was a versatile artist who worked in a variety of mediums including book illustrations, theater designs, pottery design, stained glass and textiles. His greatest love was for natural phenomena and architecture and his works are characterized by a sense of atmosphere and light.
Beginning in 1928, Piper emerged as a discerning art critic due to his love of looking at art and his insight in discussing it. In the 1930s he became involved with an abstract movement under the leadership of the prominent artists Barbara Hepworth and Ben Nicholson. Then in 1933 he made a visit to Paris where he encountered another group of abstract artists including Braque, Leger, Brancusi, and Helion. Piper's own work created between 1935 and 1937 moved into an abstract style characterized by grays, blues, blacks, and accents of red. Piper's real interest though lay in architecture and landscape. He gradually moved away from abstract and returned to landscapes, inspired by frequent trips throughout Eland and Wales. Between 1939 and 1945 he continued working in a dark palette in his work as an official war artist. He was commissioned to record damaged historical building. Following the war, excursions to Venice stimulated Piper into using warmer hues in his creation of landscape devoid of human presence.
John Piper died on June 28, 1992 at Fawley Bottom, Oxfordshire, England."

John Egerton Christmas PiperCH (13 December 1903 – 28 June 1992) was an English painter, printmaker and designer of stained-glass windows and theatre sets. His work often focused on the British landscape, especially churches and monuments, and included tapestry designs, book jackets, screen-prints, photography, fabrics and ceramics. He was educated at Epsom College and trained at the Richmond School of Art, followed by the Royal College of Art in London. He turned from abstraction early in his career, concentrating on a more naturalistic but distinctive approach. He was an official war artist in World War II. Piper collaborated with many others, including the poets John Betjeman and Geoffrey Grigson on the Shell Guides, and with the potter Geoffrey Eastop and the artist Ben Nicholson. In his later years he produced many limited-edition prints.
Early life
John Piper was born in Epsom, Surrey, the youngest of three sons to the solicitor Charles Alfred Piper and his wife Mary Ellen Matthews. During Piper's childhood, Epsom was still largely countryside. He went exploring on his bike, and drew and painted pictures of old churches and monuments on the way. He started making guide books complete with pictures and information at a young age. Piper's brothers both served in the First World War and one of them was killed at Ypres in 1915.
