there was a word missing the correct is
"he had recently assumed him as a artist"
if the above sentence is not correct then- is the following sentence false?
"Morgan had recently assumed a more conciliatory stance for which many of his erstwhile critics praised him"

Hi

"he had recently assumed him as an artist"
It might be understood: "One thought that the other was an artist" but I think a better way to say it is:"He had recently assumed (that) he[him] was an artist" (that is optional)

"Morgan had recently assumed a more conciliatory stance for which many of his erstwhile critics praised him" means:
"Morgan's recent 'attitude'[stance] is more 'willing to end disagreement'[conciliatory]; many of the critics who were Morgan's 'at one time'[erstwhile] 'approved of'[praised] this attitude."
