Sammler auf der ganzen Welt schätzen den amerikanischen Möbeldesigner und Metallgestalter Paul Evans (1931–1987) für seine Herangehensweise an die Möbelgestaltung und -herstellung, die die traditionellen Vorstellungen von Handwerk erweiterte. Indem er Möbel zugleich als Skulptur und abstrakte Komposition verstand, überschritt er immer wieder die Grenzen vom Handwerk zur Kunst. Dank seines innovativen Umgangs mit Metall und seinen neuen Ansätzen in der Möbelproduktion pendeln seine Arbeiten auf faszinierende Weise zwischen Skulptur und Design. Evans‘ Werk ist gekennzeichnet vom Experimentieren mit traditionellen und synthetischen Werkstoffen wie auch durch den Einsatz industrieller Fertigungstechniken. Dadurch erreichten Evans und seine Mitarbeiter mit ihren Möbeln eine in Handwerk und Design bis dato unerreichte und unverkennbare Ausdruckskraft.

World War II was one of the defining periods of British history, a six-year period that saw Britain and its Commonwealth stand united against the tyranny of the Axis powers. With the nation initially ill-prepared to engage in war, the British Soldier suffered many trials and reverses of fortune before his central role in the Allied victory in Europe. After early defeats, some British soldiers endured long years of captivity in German POW camps, while others performed the vital duty of home defense and training for the inevitable return to the continent. Accompanying each of these aspects of the war, there were various items that give insight into the soldier's experience. In many cases, these items - uniforms, insignia, weapons or ephemera - have become highly collectable. Peter Doyle and Paul Evans have put together a huge selection of objects relating to the British soldier's experience from 1939-1945.
