John Ensor was a British-Canadian painter and industrial designer known for his wartime industrial scenes and Canadian landscapes. Born in Llanishen, Wales, he studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Firenze, the Polytechnic School of Art in London, and the Royal College of Art. During World War II, he worked with the War Artists’ Advisory Committee, documenting aircraft production, troop training, and industrial sites. After moving to Canada in 1947, he founded the Ensor Industrial Design Association and became a member of the Royal Canadian Academy of Art. His painting Summer Stores was featured on a 1967 Canadian postage stamp. Ensor created watercolors and sketches of the Royal Military College of Canada, now housed in the Canadian War Museum and Library and Archives Canada. His work is represented in major public collections across Canada.
