Malcolm Cyril Drummond (24 May 1880 – 10 April 1945) was an English artist, noted for his paintings of urban scenes and interiors. Influenced by the Post-Impressionists* and Walter Sickert, he was a member of the Camden Town Group* and the London Group*.
Drummond was born near Maidenhead, Berkshire and educated at the Oratory School in Edgbaston, Birmingham and at Christ Church, Oxford, where he studied history. After a year working as an estate agent he studied at the Slade School of Art* from 1903 to 1907, and under Walter Sickert at the Westminster School of Art* from 1908 to 1910.
He exhibited with the Camden Town Group from 1911 to 1913, and was a founder member of the London Group in 1914, serving as its treasurer in 1921 and exhibiting with it until 1932. He taught at Westminster School of Art until he left London to return to Berkshire in 1931 following the death of his first wife.
