Sitwell, Sacheverell (1897–1988)| English art critic and poet. His work includes Southern Baroque Art 1924 and British Architects and Craftsmen 1945; Collected Poems 1936; and prose miscellanies such as Sacred and Profane Love 1940 and Splendours and Miseries 1943. He was the younger brother of Edith and Osbert Sitwell. |
| Sitwell was born in Scarborough, Yorkshire, studied at Oxford, and served with the Grenadier Guards in World War I. |
Poetry His poetry is traditional in form and style, and reveals his preoccupations with art and music. It includes The Hundred and One Harlequins 1922, The Thirteenth Caesar 1924, Exalt the Eglantine 1926, The Cyder Feast 1927, and Dr Donne and Gargantua: the First Six Cantos 1930 (cantos seven and eight were privately printed). |
Prose Further works of art criticism are German Baroque Art 1927, The Gothick North 1929, and Spanish Baroque Art 1931. Other prose works include Conversation Pieces 1936, Roumanian Journey 1938, Primitive Scenes and Festivals 1942, and Spain 1950. All Summer in a Day 1926 is an autobiographical fantasia, and Far from My Home 1931 is a volume of short stories. |

| It is a preoccupation that has enabled them to benefit here from the experimentation of the first Elizabethan age and engage Smythson's Hardwick Hall (designated by Sacheverell Sitwell as 'the lesson and precursor of much modern architecture,) [4] with Walsall's everyday to re-view Modernism through the design of this outstanding new work of architecture. By the time of the 'Georgian' - Sir George, 4th baronet's - generation, Edith, Osbert and Sacheverell Sitwell were enabled, with the inclusion of collateral relations, to assume a hauteur and pretensions to aristocratic lineage somewhat in excess of the entitlement of their direct blood-line. |
