Wikipedia (website), viewed Sept. 1, 2021: Clive Bell (Arthur Clive Heward Bell (16 September 1881 - 17 September 1964) was an English art critic, associated with formalism and the Bloomsbury Group. He developed the art theory known as significant form. Bell was born in East Shefford, Berkshire, in 1881, the third of four children of William Heward Bell (1849-1927) and Hannah Taylor Cory (1850-1942). He had an elder brother (Cory), an elder sister (Lorna, Mrs Acton), and a younger sister (Dorothy, Mrs Hony). They lived at Cleeve House, Seend, near Devizes, Wiltshire, where Squire Bell's many hunting trophies were displayed. Bell was educated at Marlborough College and at Trinity College, Cambridge, studying history. In 1902 he gained an Earl of Derby scholarship to study in Paris, where his interest in art began.)
