Gwen Raverat: Wood Engraver

Rating:
Summary: A remarkable and unique in-depth artbook
Review: Co-written by Joanna Selborne and Lindsay Newman, Gwen Raverat: Wood Engraver informatively examines the life and work of Gwen Raverat (1885-1957), the only woman to become a founder-member of the Society of Wood Engravers. Gwen Raverat's prolific carvings, her overtones of impressionism, her memorable children's book illustrations, and so much more, are all displayed in black-and-white and knowledgeably discussed at great length. A remarkable and unique in-depth artbook, Gwen Raverat: Wood Engraver is a unique and seminally important addition to academic and community library History of Art reference collections.
