He also created painted maps for Arts &amp; Crafts houses including Lindisfarne Castle, magnificent murals for Cunard liners, and eye-catching publicity posters for organisations such as the Empire Marketing Board. An enduring legacy is his alphabet for the Imperial War Graves Commission used on all British military headstones since the First World War.<\/p>\n<p>This illustrated talk by Max Gill\u2019s great-niece presents a colourful overview of this versatile artist\u2019s personal life and artistic achievements.
