By the early 20th century the growing tube and bus network meant that artists no longer had to live in close proximity. The Camden Town Group painted everyday urban surroundings in vivid Post-Impressionist colours, but only a few of their members actually lived in Camden. Walter Sickert and Spencer Gore were among those and often depicted the area's seedy urban sites, music halls and dingy bedsits from their succession of Camden studios.
