- Book Synopsis
- This comprehensive survey of the career of Edward Bawden brings together his most significant work in watercolour, printmaking, design and illustration. A sequel to the author's previous title on Ravilious, this volume surveys the life and work of fellow artist Edward Bawden (1903-1989), another popular exponent of the modern British tradition. The book explores in depth the most significant creative periods of Bawden's life and is fully illustrated throughout. Bawden began his career in the 1920s as a precociously talented designer and illustrator. He successfully reinvented himself time and again as the decades passed while always retaining a distinctive freshness, humour and humanity in his work. The book accompanied a major exhibition at Dulwich Picture Gallery.
