John Armstrong was a British painter and designer working across figurative painting, surrealism, and theatrical set design throughout the mid-twentieth century. Active from the 1920s onward, his work engaged with modernist formal innovation while maintaining a commitment to narrative and the human figure. Armstrong's practice encompassed oil painting, printmaking, and design for ballet and theatre, positioning him within the British modernist tradition of the interwar and postwar periods.
