Biografia

Martin Davies, o filho mais novo de Ernest Woodbine Davies e Elizabeth Eleanor Davies, nasceu em Cheyne Walk, Londres, em 22 de Março de 1908.[3]

Estudou Matemática e Línguas e Literaturas Modernas na Rugby School e no King’s College, em Cambridge. Em 1930, entrou para a National Gallery, como assistente, passando aos quadros em 1932, sendo responsável pelas pinturas flamengas e alemãs, e progrediu até chegar ao cargo de Director em Janeiro de 1968.[1]

No período da Segunda Guerra Mundial, teve um papel crucial na protecção das colecções da National Gallery, transferindo-as para Manod Quarry, no Norte do País de Gales.[3]

Durante a sua direcção, adquiriu diversas pinturas de artistas como Rogier van der Weyden, Rubens, Ticiano ou Rousseau. A partir de 1945, Davies produziu vários catálogos da colecção, os quais são reconhecidos mundialmente, e criou um novo padrão académico para esses catálogos.[1][3]

Davies recebeu o título de Cavaleiro em 1972, um anos antes de se reformar, e morreu em 1975.
