Opis

Walter Richard Sickert (1860-1942) was a major European artist and critic of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, whose statements on art from the 1880s to the 1930s have been used by artists and writers for more than half a century. Containing over 400 entries, this collection offers new insight into Sickert as an artist and provides valuable information about other British artists of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

Recenzje

Its contents are a bizarre and wondrous synthesis: a series of views that, taken together, form a remarkably consistent literary and artistic autobiography, and arguably the most ebullient series of critical expostulations on art from 1882-1937 to be found in print anywhere.
